IMO, certification does nothing except improve your knowledge(depending on what course you take). Since there is no standard, the certification you get from one entity may not be acceptable to all SS or companies. I have not seen one certification that has 100% correct information for CA.
With that said, I also think that the NNA is one of the worst. They routinely give out wrong notary information, and when challenged they refuse to change their position, even if clear and overwhelming proof is presented to them. They have a superficial understanding of signings at best, based on my many conversations with notaries who have taken their course.
If you are looking to get "Certified" just so you can put it on your resume, don't bother. In 8 years I have NEVER been asked if I was certified. |
