Looking for a CE course that actually teaches

My renewal is due May 31 in Texas, and the 2-hour refresher I took last night was just slides with no real examples. What online course has practical walk-throughs — like tricky IDs or name mismatches — that I can finish this month?

I sat through the same kind of 2‑hour slide fest — . NNA’s Texas Notary Essentials plus their short “Identifying Signers” module walk through ‘tricky IDs’ and name mismatches, and you can knock them out this month: https://www.nationalnotary.org/education/texas. If you want deeper real‑world scenarios, Notary2Pro’s training is good but more signing‑agent heavy and longer — are you just renewing for May 31 or also doing RON?

I’ve had similar experiences with boring courses. I recommend checking out NNA’s Texas Notary Essentials; it’s got practical examples that really walk you through those tricky situations like ID mismatches. Have you looked into any reviews on that one yet?
