Dear Notary Friends --

You'll leave this course with a ton of confidence in your new business as a notary signing agent after being taught by Jake Burkhalter and myself (Brenda Stone). This is the strongest curriculum, the best program, and the most integrated notary signing agent training available today!

Your Trainers

Jake's first part-time job as a teenager was with a major title company in the Houston area. He has literally grown up in the business. I have been a mortgage loan processor and a commercial loan document preparer. Together, Jake and I have over 50 years on the calendar as notaries public. We've both been handling loan documents for decades.

You won't want to miss Jake's lighthearted, often funny, but knowledge-packed course material he teaches along with his partner Brenda Stone who has been involved in notary education for over 10 years. (Jake has also taught for 8 years at a Texas community college.)
