Notary Signing agent courses

Beginner's Questions
1

I already have done a course with NNA but would it be worth it if I enrolled in a course with Notary2pro or LSS course that would help me learn and expand more.? What you think?

I took LSS with Mark Willis, and I learned enough and felt more secured when I first started accepting offers to do signingsā€¦ good luck in your new endeavor :innocent:

The thing that I think helps knowledge the most is READ THE FORUMSā€¦particularly the older stuff. Thereā€™s more all around good info givenā€“freeā€“than youā€™ll get from any other training.

And patienceā€¦face it, thereā€™s a LOT of experienced SAs out there whoā€™ve been ā€˜favoritesā€™ for a long time because they are a known quantity, so why would a scheduler take a chance with a newbā€“regardless of how many training courses they took and paid big $ for?

I recommend NNA, as Iā€™ve received quite a few closings from companies who have searched NNA site at <(https://www.signingagent.com> for a Notary Signing Agent!

After completing the NNA certification process, one can order business cards, etc. Iā€™ve found that I didnā€™t necessarily learn a lot more, BUTā€¦ the benefits of earning NNA certification have been substantial. I would put Notary2Pro in the same category as the NNA.

Notary2Pro has a great deal of information available on their site, including a list of companies that have hired Notary2Pro grads. The hiring companies are rated, too! I was recruited and invited to work for a company that usually requires NSAā€™s to have two years of experienceā€¦ I was ā€œfoundā€ at the NNA online site, SigningAgent.com which invites inquirers to

I would advise you to join the National Notary Association and also to complete the NNA training!

I took the NNA loan signing agent course too. I found myself unprepared and a little disappointed with the training. I felt that their course was outdated. I also thought that I would get a better understanding of each loan package. I also thought I would learn more terminology. I found myself asking the same thing, ā€œShould I sign up for another loan signing agent course?ā€ Then I found this forum and I couldnā€™t be anymore happier. I have learned so much from other NSAā€™s. I read through this forum and take notes every extra moment I have to better my business. I recommend you do the same before spending money on another course. There are very wise NSAā€™s on these forum posts. Soak up all their knowledge and you will gain more confidence with your appointments.

Research all three, Notary2Pro, NotaryCoach and LSS. Select the one which resonates most with YOU. Many grads from each are quite satisfied.

I went with Notary2Pro followed by NotaryCoach personally, best decisions Iā€™ve made.

You wonā€™t necessarily learn anything valuable from the NNA course! DO NOT FORGET the value of having the NNA IMPRIMATUR as a Notary Signing Agent!
