Certificate of Acknowledgment
Click here for full view.
Did you know? The acknowledgment is the most commonly performed
notarial act. You will learn the proper steps in taking an acknowledgment,
including the spoken as well as the written parts, in Lesson 3 of our online
course. This is just one example of what you'll learn with
us.
Here are a few other helpful
things to know:
• The online course
material is divided into seven lessons along with a glossary
and interactive self-assessment quiz (40 questions).
• The seven lessons
are: Introduction; Qualifications & Appointment; Acknowledgments;
Oaths, Affirmations & Affidavits; Other Notarial Duties; Restrictions;
and, Misconduct & Penalties. They are formatted
for easy reading on your computer screen. If printed, the lessons amount to
50 pages.
• This course will
help you focus on the terms, concepts and procedures you specifically
need to know to serve competently in your new public and professional
role.

This class helps you prepare for your day-to-day duties as a New Jersey
Notary Public and provides you with a comprehensive view of the notary public
office. Confusing laws, concepts and procedures are clearly explained,
and examples are given to illustrate situations that a notary is likely to encounter.
Topics include avoiding conflicts of interest, maintaining professional ethics,
charging proper fees, when to defer to an attorney and minimizing legal liability.
Learn how to properly execute acknowledgments and affidavits, and how to administer
oaths and affirmations, as well as inform yourself about what you cannot do as
a notary within the State of New Jersey, such as performing marriages or certifying
copies of official records. An orientation course such as this one is a must
for notary candidates to become fully aware of the authority, duties,
and responsibilities relating to this important public office. We believe we have the best online course materials and live instructor support (via email, phone, Skype or Zoom to answer your questions) available to New Jersey notary candidates. PLEASE NOTE: This class does not consist of "standalone" material; it is designed for your supplemental study. The State of New Jersey has not approved any specific coursework to date, since announcing recent changes. According to the Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, you are directed to Review the N.J. Notary Public Manual and watch the entire series of Notary Public Manual Training Videos. Questions? Email Steven. The jurisdiction of a notary
is statewide; therefore, once you are duly commissioned (i.e.
licensed), you may render notary services to the general public
throughout the 21 counties of the state, including SECAUCUS
in Hudson County.

Easy-to-Read
Lessons
The online course material is essentially
the same as what is given at our 3-hour live program. The
language is plain English, the course outline is clearly structured, and our
online viewer is a breeze to navigate. The New Jersey-specific details are as up-to-date as possible. If you're looking for the New York edition of the course instead,

Hands-on
Learning
We provide you with sample forms
(an acknowledgment certificate, affidavit and more) to print out and follow
along with the lessons in step-by-step fashion, as though you were actually
sitting in the classroom.
Affordable
While typical seminars run from $75
to $175, our online version
is only $39. "O.K.,"
you might say, "That sounds fine — I will save money by taking
the class online, even though I might prefer live classroom instruction. But
how much are the mandatory State fees that I must pay to become a notary?"
Answer: Whether you choose the traditional classroom format or an
online option, your official filing fees are minimal. There is a $25 fee payable to the N.J. State Treasurer, along
with a $15 fee payable to your County Clerk when you get sworn in. Your New
Jersey notary commission, i.e. license, will be good for FIVE years.
No
Commercials!
We point you to sources of notary supplies, such
as stamps, and services such as Notary Public Errors & Omissions Insurance,
without "pushing" any products in particular. We give you straight
talk about which product lines are preferred. You'll appreciate the practical,
hands-on, "no-nonsense" teaching style.
Personalized
Approach
The instructor begins his presentation by giving you his business card with full contact information, just as he does in the live classroom. He is available to answer your questions via email, telephone, Skype or Zoom. This means you get not only the written self-paced course materials, but also DIRECT ACCESS to a QUALIFIED INSTRUCTOR — all for only $39. Please feel free to reach out. We enjoy hearing from our students, and we are interested in being a part of your success! Enroll now.
