ClassGraphic Whether you want to boost your income, create a new job opportunity, provide a service to your community, or increase your value to your current employer, this is the perfect opportunity. In this Secretary of State approved class you will learn how to perform valuable services by certifying or witnessing signatures on official documents. Notary skills are valuable in almost any industry: real estate, legal, medical, and banking to name just a few. This class gives you the knowledge to pass the exam and practice as an effective Notary. Participants receive two practice tests and will take the official Notary exam directly following the class.

Must be 18+ years of age. Livescan fingerprints are required to become a notary. Serious Convictions may disqualify applicants.

Due to State regulations, no one will be admitted to the classroom after 8:15 a.m. You must return from breaks on time.
Students must bring the following items to class:
  • ID, one of the following, must be current or issued within the last five years:
    • U.S. state-issued driver’s license or ID card
    • Canadian or Mexican driver’s license
    • U.S. passport or a passport issued by a foreign government
    • U.S. military ID card
  • 2 x 2 color passport-size photograph. You may not use the photo that is in your passport! You need a separate photo that is the standard size for a passport. This will be used by the SOS proctor as part of your application for the test.
  • $40 exam fee in the form of a check or money order made payable to the Secretary of State. This fee is for the exam, and is in addition to the class fee.
