About AIQV
A professional institute for quantitative, evidence-based tax valuation
We train, certify and support Queensland registered valuers to deliver desktop valuation assessments for taxation purposes that are fast, transparent and defensible.
Our mission
To raise the standard, consistency and accessibility of market valuation evidence used for Australian taxation purposes, by equipping registered valuers with transparent quantitative methods, standardised reporting and complete audit trails.
What we do
- Deliver the AIQV Certification Program: four core modules and a competency assessment
- Issue AIQV Certification Numbers and maintain a public register of certified valuers
- Publish the AIQV Standard, Code of Ethics, CPD Policy and report templates
- Provide the approved AIQV desktop assessment workspace and report engine
- Facilitate access to a segregated professional indemnity facility for AIQV work
- Handle complaints about certified valuers fairly and transparently
Our values
Integrity
We put the reliability of the valuation opinion ahead of speed, volume or cost.
Transparency
Our methodology, rules and templates are published. Our models show their working.
Respect
We complement statutory registration and the work of established professional bodies, and speak of them with respect.
Accountability
Every report is signed by a registered valuer, supported by a complete evidence record and subject to a fair complaints process.
Our place in the profession
In Queensland, the registration and discipline of valuers is the statutory responsibility of the Valuers Registration Board of Queensland under the Valuers Registration Act 1992 (Qld) and the Valuers Registration Regulation 2024. Established professional bodies, including the Australian Property Institute and the Australian Valuers Institute, set standards of practice and education for their members across the full spectrum of valuation work.
AIQV has a deliberately narrow focus: restricted-scope desktop valuation assessments prepared for taxation purposes using approved quantitative methods. We do not issue licences or registrations, we do not accredit valuers for lending, litigation or any other purpose, and AIQV certification is not a substitute for statutory registration.
Membership is voluntary and additional. Every AIQV certified valuer must hold, and continue to hold, current registration with the Valuers Registration Board of Queensland. Certification lapses automatically if registration ceases.
Governance
AIQV is a privately operated professional training and certification institute. Its standards, policies and disciplinary decisions are overseen by a Standards & Compliance Committee that operates under published terms, with an independent reviewer available for appeals under our Complaints Handling & Disciplinary Procedure.
Our full policy suite is available under Governance & Standards.
Where we operate
AIQV launches in Queensland for valuers registered with the Valuers Registration Board of Queensland. We intend to extend the program to other Australian jurisdictions as the relevant registration and licensing frameworks are mapped into our curriculum.
