​​​​​​​The Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending (the Division) requires mortgage company and mortgage servicer qualified employees to take a 1-hour course covering Division-defined mortgage regulation topics as part of the QE's annual continuing education requirement. This course covers topics relating to Nevada qualified employees.

Each licensed mortgage company must have a qualified employee at each location licensed with the Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending. (NRS 645B.021; NAC 645B.030)

A qualified employee is a natural person who is designated by a mortgage company to act on behalf of the mortgage company and who is approved by the Commissioner. (NAC 645B.008)

The first module of this course is an introduction and an overview of the Division. The second module is an outline of the additional requirements for mortgage companies located in Nevada Administrative Code (NAC) 645B and Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) 645B such as responsibilities, record keeping requirements, and advertisement restrictions. The third module examines other covered services supervised by the Division, such as foreclosure consultants, loan modification consultants, and mortgage servicers. The fourth and last module categories a variety of unfair mortgage lending practices that are prohibited as codified in NRS 598D.
