USPAP Simplified
Did you know USPAP stands for the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice?

Each week this month, we’ll break down a key USPAP term or concept to help you stay sharp.

Appraisers must comply with USPAP when required by law, regulation, or agreement with the client.

As a member of the Equestrian Canada Equine Health and Welfare Committee, Tracy was asked to put forward an equine competition matter to focus on in the upcoming year. Her topic was the issue of horse overuse in competition. She was honored to be part of the working group that addressed this important topic, resulting in a definition for overuse as of June 2025 and enforceable rules as of January 1, 2026, for Equestrian Canada competitions. Even better, the United States Equestrian Federation announced today that the same definition for horse overuse will now be used for USEF competitions.
