Julia Bell
“I was in the midst of changing occupations and the College for Appraisers staff made everything so easy. Most important, the instructors at the college gave me the greatest foundation to understanding antiques and collectibles. As a result, I feel as if I have a greater advantage over others with what I learned….
In my current work, I do over 100 comparables a week. I could not do this without the foundation I learned at the Collage for Appraisers.”
