PROGRESS, COMPLETION, AND ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS

Students who do not complete 100% of the material will not be issued a certificate of completion and will not receive credit hours for the course.

Courses may be delivered via multiple delivery methods. Asynchronous delivery allows students to learn at their own pace and access the course 24/7/365. Synchronous (live online) delivery requires that students are in attendance at a specific place at a specific time (can be online). Flexible Learning is learning that is delivered by paralleling live online course content with our self-paced training course. This delivery method allows students to choose to complete the content via live online or self-paced delivery or a combination of both.
EXAMINATIONS

- Unit exams are presented at the conclusion of each unit, with a varying number of questions depending on the amount of content contained in each unit. Unit exams can be retaken as many times as necessary.
- Students will not be able to proceed to subsequent units in the course until the unit exam in each unit is successfully completed and passed.
- Final exams are presented at the conclusion of each course, with a varying number of questions depending on the amount of content contained in the course. Students may take the examination as many times as necessary to achieve a passing score and demonstrate understanding of the material, unless the jurisdiction or education type specifies otherwise. Please refer to the state-specific catalog page(s) for information on the number of final exam attempts, passing percentage required, and proctoring requirements.
- If a jurisdiction requires the final course exam to be proctored, the student will be required to use The CE Shop’s third-party electronic proctoring solution at the student's cost, where applicable.

STUDENT RULES OF CONDUCT
Rules of Conduct for NMLS-Approved Pre-Licensing (PE) and Continuing Education (CE) Courses
The Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act (SAFE Act), requires that state-licensed MLOs complete Pre-Licensing (PE) and Continuing Education (CE) courses as a condition to be licensed. The SAFE Act also requires that all education completed as a condition for state licensure be NMLS-approved. Since 2009 NMLS has established course design, approval, and delivery standards which NMLS-approved course providers are required to meet. To further ensure students meet the
requirements of the SAFE Act, NMLS has established a Rules of Conduct (ROC). The ROC has been approved by the NMLS Mortgage Testing & Education Board and the NMLS Policy Committee, both of which are comprised of state regulators, and are intended to stress that NMLS-approved education be delivered and completed with integrity.
Rules of Conduct
As an individual completing either Pre-Licensure education (PE) or Continuing Education (CE), I agree to abide by the following rules of conduct:
- I attest that I am the person who I say I am and that all my course registration information is accurate.
- I acknowledge that I will be required to show a current government issued form of identification prior to, and during the course, and/or be required to answer questions that are intended to verify/validate my identity prior to, and during the course.
- I understand that the SAFE Act and state laws require me to spend a specific amount of time in specific subject areas. Accordingly, I will not attempt to circumvent the requirements of any NMLS-approved course.
- I will not divulge my login ID or password or other login credential(s) to another individual for any online course.
- I will not seek or attempt to seek outside assistance to complete the course.
- I will not give or attempt to give assistance to any person who is registered to take an NMLS-approved Pre-Licensing or Continuing Education course.
- I will not engage in any conduct that creates a disturbance or interferes with the administration of the course or other students’ learning.
- I will not engage in any conduct that would be contrary to good character or reputation, or engage in any behavior that would cause the public to believe that I would not operate in the mortgage loan business lawfully, honestly and fairly.
- I will not engage in any conduct that is dishonest, fraudulent, or would adversely impact the integrity of the course(s) I am completing and the conditions for which I am seeking licensure or renewal of licensure.
I understand that NMLS-approved course providers are not authorized by NMLS to grant exceptions to these rules and that I alone am responsible for my conduct under these rules. I also understand that these rules are in addition to whatever applicable rules my course provider may have.
I understand that the course provider or others may report any alleged violations to NMLS and that NMLS may conduct an investigation into alleged violations and that they may report alleged violations to the state(s) in which I am seeking licensure or maintain licenses, or to other states.
I understand the CSBS Privacy Notice is applicable to these Rules of Conduct. The CSBS Privacy Notice can be found here: https://nationwidelicensingsystem.org/about/policies/NMLS%20Document%20Library/CSBS%20External%20Privacy%20Notice-6.18%20(1).pdf
I further understand that the results of any investigation into my alleged violation(s) may subject me to disciplinary actions by the state(s) or the State Regulatory Registry (SRR), including removal of any course from my NMLS record, and/or denial or revocation of my license(s).
