This 9 hour package for mortgage loan originators in Washington is designed to provide all of the mandatory education needed to renew your MLO license.This course is broken down into 6 modules. Each module contains:

  • A section of training
  • An activity in which students will read a short scenario and then answer questions about the scenario
  • A quiz that consists of five questions

The first module of the course is about sweeping laws and rules that apply to mortgage loans and mortgage loan originators across the country. A review of the SAFE Act, NMLS registration, an overview of state licensing standards, Regulation Z, and Integrated Mortgage Disclosures will make the bulk of the module. 

The second module deals with ethical considerations and consumer protection. Identity theft prevention and safeguarding client data start us off. Then, topics related to the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act take center stage. Several case studies will be presented, as will other recommendations on compliance with such laws as Regulation N. Fair lending practices and balancing one’s business aspirations with the health of the market are emphasized.

The third module examines non-traditional mortgage loan products like adjustable rate mortgages and reverse mortgages. Federal Housing Administration updates are first, then the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage program is featured, along with its changes. Various other types of loans and financing options are considered, including government programs, high-cost loans and their requirements, and portfolio loans.

Finally, the fourth module focuses on mortgage markets and the Federal Reserve System. Students will review general concepts, conventional and unconventional loan types, then, as lead-in to the discussion and historical overview of the Federal Reserve System, we'll cover financial markets and sources of home financing.

A final exam will ask 25 questions randomly drawn from the general education portion of the package.

The state-specific course begins with a review of regulatory codes and the differences between various loan professionals in the industry. Then, we'll discuss qualifying activities which require licensure as an MLO and the Consumer Loan Act. 

In the second module is an overview of prohibited practices, DFI's investigative and enforcement authority, and possible penalties for violations. Next is a look at the one page disclosure summary and its requirements. Finally, a bit of news from a DFI newsletter and real world cases involving lenders and originators will show what can happen when players in the industry neglect public interests for their own gain.

An additional 15 question final exam about the state modules will finish off this package.
