This Michigan bill establishes a licensing system for notary schools, requiring them to obtain a state license and pay fees to operate legally. To qualify, schools must provide a specific curriculum covering notary duties and remote electronic notarization, employ a certified notary instructor, and carry professional liability insurance. The legislation also mandates that students pass a standardized exam with an 80% passing score and requires schools to demonstrate high student success rates to renew their licenses.
