​​​​​​​The Utah Division of Real Estate (DRE) require those who hold a Utah mortgage license to complete a one-hour course on Utah mortgage laws and regulations as a requirement for annual license renewal. This online course covers the required topics as defined by the DRE for license renewal through the NMLS.

This one-hour course will cover the topics outlined by the DRE. We'll start with updates to the Utah Residential Mortgage Practices and Licensing Act. Next, we'll cover several topics recommended by the Division such as reverse mortgages. Finally, we'll look over the importance of protecting information submitted by Utah loan applicants and the simultaneous roles a mortgage licensee is prohibited from acting in during a loan transaction to prevent conflicts of interest.

This course consists of three modules and a final exam:

1. Utah Residential Mortgage Practices and Licensing Rule Changes
