Opportunity Snapshot
This unique position offers you excellent part-time income, flexible hours and the opportunity to meet new people in fresh venues on a regular basis. The National Notary Association (NNA) is the nationally and internationally recognized professional association for America's Notaries Public, and the authority and thought leader for the profession. In this role you will become the face of the NNA for many Notaries, helping them launch and build successful careers.
You will deliver a standardized program that prepares people to pass the state Notary exam in various locations in your region. To be a good fit for this opportunity you will have educational experience, whether training adult or school-age learners, and an engaging and energetic presentation style. If you're already a Notary yourself, great; if not, we'll train you. You also will need to truly enjoy the flexibility that comes with this role, not merely be willing to put up with it. We're looking for professionals who can grasp complex and technical material, including notarial law, and present it so that it is accessible to diverse audiences. Quick question for you - click here
The NNA is a stable, progressive organization that has over 50 years of success supporting Notaries with an entrepreneurial and forward-thinking approach. Our high-demand professional programs, services, model legislation, and technology initiatives help Notaries advance their careers and serve the American public with the highest level of professionalism and ethics. We are committed to our members as well as to our 165 employees, always striving to provide our people with growth and development opportunities.
What Else You'll Bring to the Table
This role is not for everyone: it requires a degree of stamina in order to travel regionally, transport 40 lbs of training materials, deliver platform training for six hours -- and sometimes do it three days in a row. That means occasionally you'll need to stay overnight, although mostly you'll be home for dinner. Ideal candidates will be self-possessed and unflappable even as things come up during the day, able to smile and continue delivering a seamlessly positive experience for attendees. In addition to the qualifications detailed above, you'll need:
You also will need the ability to read, comprehend and apply a good deal of complex subject matter quickly, and to do so with minimal supervision. During your first 12 weeks with us you will invest about 30 hours a week in learning and training (with pay, of course). The program is structured and we'll provide support, but you'll need to take ownership of your own success.
In addition you will need to be willing and able to travel throughout your region, so you'll need reliable transportation, a valid driver's license and automobile insurance. The regions:
What's in It for You
Help people and the profession -- the education you provide will help people launch a high potential career and keep their skills current, a valuable service at a time when many are exploring career options. You'll also contribute to maintaining the high standards of a profession that is in demand now more than ever -- consider the growing incidence of fraud and identity theft, for example.
Flexibility by design -- on average you'll present three to six seminars a month, although the schedule will vary; you may present three in one week and none at all the next. However, each of these three regions generally has a steady schedule of seminars. With travel and set up, seminar days can be fairly long, running 10 to 12 hours. Our most valued team members have a high degree of schedule flexibility and like it that way. At the same time, if a strong performer is interested in becoming full time, that may be an option.
The right balance of time and money -- as you can see, this can be a great way to earn solid part-time income while still having time to pursue other ambitions, whether that is an additional career (perhaps you're already a practicing Notary), going to school, raising a family, writing the Great American Novel, or other goals.
The nation's leader -- none of our competitors even come close to NNA's size, scope, and influence. We offer services and products for every stage of a Notary's career, from obtaining an original commission to ongoing education, professional supplies, bonds and insurance, emerging technologies, and more.
Competitive compensation -- in addition to a competitive hourly rate we'll pay mileage and travel expenses.
More About Your Role
If you're a good fit for this position, you already know most of what this job entails. However, to be sure we're providing a complete picture, here are some details.
You will be a member of a team that currently includes 15 Seminar Instructors. The training program you will deliver provides three key benefits to attendees: it fulfills the state mandated training requirement to receive or renew a notary commission, it prepares attendees to pass the state Notary exam, and it prepares them to practice as a successful Notary.
Typically your seminar will be paired with the administration of the state exam, delivered by a state-certified proctor shortly after the seminar. While not all the attendees will test that same day, this arrangement will provide you with feedback regarding passing rates, which will be your key metric. In addition to delivering the material, you'll monitor room arrangements, set up seminar materials and equipment (such as a projector and laptop), check people in, respond to questions about the content, and handle procedural inquiries. Quick question for you - click here
During your "home office" time you'll study and prepare materials, make logistical arrangements (such as scheduling the materials to be delivered) and maintain your personal subject-area knowledge. You will present in various locations in your region, usually in a hotel or on a university campus. In general we schedule the instructors one month out but the ideal team member will be able to pitch in on a day's notice.
Keys to Success
To excel in this role you will employ a dynamic presentation style that engages the attention of learners even when the material is dry. Our Seminar Instructors are detail oriented, mature and able to work independently as well as contribute to the team. They also are very committed, investing time and effort into knowing the profession and the material. Being the thought leader for the nation's Notaries means maintaining an unwavering commitment to the moral and ethical integrity that is fundamental to the profession, and we'll expect you, as the face of the NNA, to conduct yourself with the same high standards.
If this sounds like the right mix of challenge and opportunity for you, and you meet the minimum qualifications, we want to hear from you!
