Missouri Pre-Licensure Education Requirements

New state-licensed MLOs are required to complete 20 hours of NMLS-approved education. This education must include 3 hours of Federal law, 3 hours of ethics (which shall include fraud, consumer protection, and fair lending issues), 2 hours of non-traditional mortgage lending, plus 12 hours of undefined education (referred to as electives). Number of hours is 3/3/2/12 = 20 Missouri does not have a requirement for instruction on state-specific law.

Missouri Continuing Education Requirements

Every state-licensed MLO (in any approved status) is required to complete at least 8 hours of NMLS approved education annually beginning the year they are licensed (unless PE was completed in the same year). Annual CE education must include 3 hours of Federal law, 2 hours of ethics (which shall include fraud, consumer protection, and fair lending issues), and 2 hours of non-traditional mortgage lending, plus one (1) additional hour of MO-specific education (referred to as an elective). Number of hours is 3/2/2/ plus 1hr of MO law = 8 MLOs are advised that to comply with the SAFE Act’s “successive years” rule, they may not take the same CE course two years in a row. MLO’s are advised not to retake pre-licensure education (PE) unless directed to by a State Regulator. PE education does not count towards meeting annual CE requirements.[product_categories orderby="" order="" columns="5" ids="324, 326, 327, 325, 277"]Group pricing and education planning available, complete the form and we will propose a method to save you or your group time and money![contact-form-7 id="7750" title="Education Planning for Multiple Licenses or Groups?"]
