California 3 Hour Renewing Course Now Online

It's hard to believe that mandatory education has been in California for 4 years already. The laws have changed a bit from 2005. Now, the only significant difference between new and renewing notaries is 3 hours. Renewing notaries who have a commission expiration date of June 30, 2009 or later, are eligible for the 3 hour course in lieu of the 6 hour course. The only catch is you must take and PASS the notary exam before your commission expires to still be considered a renewing notary. If you wait to the last minute and fail your exam, you have to take the 6 hour course again! We try to teach people to RENEW EARLY, RENEW EARLY, RENEW EARLY. There is no penalty for early renewal, but waiting can be big penalties, such as a lapse in your commission.
