• Background checks

    Posted by Cynthia on August 28, 2024 at 8:33 am

    Does anyone know a good place to get a background check done here in Colorado? i live in the Denver Metro Area. Please help! I have asks many they have told me NSA but they only sell in packages with the certification. I am already going through certification through the Notary Training School.

    If anyone can answer this for me it would be helpful.

    Thanks,

    Cynthia

    Hi,

    We recommend the NNA’s certification/background check package because it’s a great value since it’s priced about the same as background check only options so it’s like you get their certification for free.

    It’s important to note that their certification primarily covers ethics in great detail and not the breadth of topics covered in our program.

    Our signing agent program comes with our own certification, and we also offer free bonus training for those interested in the NNA certification. It’s important to note that you’d only need to purchase their $99 package, as our comprehensive training covers everything in their program and more. For instance, we provide guidance on running the business and securing signings, areas not covered by the NNA. The two certifications are complementary, not competitors, each focusing on different aspects of the business. It’s worth considering that with the NNA, you’re primarily paying for the background check.

    As an example, we have a state-approved notary training course on a different website for CA, and that state requires a background check for all notary commissions, which typically costs more than $99.

      Thank you for the response, i just completed the “certified signing agent” and passed, so your certifications are not valid? i need to go to NNA to be validated with training certifications and background?

      Thanks,

        Hi,

        The NNA’s background check and certification option is priced about the same as other background-check-only options. We recommend theirs because it’s like getting an additional certification for free. Their certification is a brief training that focuses mainly on ethics and a very brief overview of a limited amount of documents and doesn’t teach anything about how to start a signing agent business and get signings. The two certifications are complimentary, not competitors, since they focus on different areas of the business. We actually created our program to make up for all of the gaps in theirs.
