On April 28th of 2012, Mr. Hanlin, president of IACVA and Mr. Claywell, Vice President of Education visited the China Appraisal Society (CAS). Secretary General of CAS, Madam Liu Ping and Vice Secretary General Ms. Hai Liying of CAS met with President Hanlin and his party. During the meeting, Madam Liu confirmed previous achievements. She pointed out that China's reform and opening up requires companies to go abroad. Valuators serving overseas Chinese companies are increasingly reliant on the close cooperation between CAS and IACVA. President Hanlin stated that previous joint efforts laid an excellent foundation for further cooperation. The two parties are making full preparations for regular and systematic cooperation. In addition, they discussed the joint annual meeting to be held in Xi’an in September of 2012, agreeing that more forums and annual meetings should be held to enhance influences in the Chinese valuation field. At the end of the discussion, Secretary General Liu presented the honorary member certificate to President Hanlin.

Following this meeting, IACVA organized training for Chinese instructors in the conference room of CAS for the first time on April 29th, 2012. Five instructors-in-training from the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong attend the session. This activity was a great success.
