Meaningful member events that inspire growth, innovation, and partnership.
FIVA events are designed for valuation professionals working within financial institutions who face real regulatory responsibility, operational complexity, and leadership expectations. Rather than broad industry conferences or sales-driven programming, FIVA events focus on practical discussion, peer insight, and real-world application relevant to chief appraisers, valuation managers, and risk leaders.
Through a mix of virtual meetings and in-person gatherings, FIVA creates space for meaningful conversation around valuation practices, regulatory expectations, audit readiness, leadership challenges, and emerging risks. Events are intentionally structured to encourage dialogue, shared learning, and the exchange of practical insight members can apply within their institutions.
FIVA hosts a variety of events throughout the year to support ongoing education and peer connection. These may include monthly virtual discussions, special-topic sessions, regional meetups, and the annual FIVA Summit.
Each event listing includes:
A brief overview of the topic and objectives
Info on upcoming virtual meetings and in-person events
Event descriptions, dates, and registration links
Admin-managed event updates
Any applicable attendance requirements
Events are managed by FIVA administrators, allowing members to easily stay informed as new opportunities are added and schedules evolve.
The FIVA Summit is FIVA’s flagship annual event, bringing valuation leaders together from across the country for in-depth discussion, shared learning, and relationship-building. Unlike traditional conferences, the Summit is designed to foster open conversation and peer exchange. Sessions focus on real experiences, regulatory considerations, and leadership perspectives that valuation professionals can apply immediately within their institutions.

FIVA members receive access to a growing archive of past event recordings and materials. This resource allows members to revisit discussions, review educational content, and stay connected even if they are unable to attend live sessions.
The archive may be organized by date, topic, or event type, supporting on-demand learning and reinforcing FIVA’s commitment to continuous education.
