Elementary Course, poorly written
This was very, very basic. Very little of the info used is helpful to a broker / loan officer on a day to day basis. No talk of TRID requirements, not talk of tolerances and how they really apply. Tolerances outside 10% are paid by the lender/broker at time of closing and pulled from commissions.
Lots of repetitive info. Way too much talk of the homestead exemption, scenarios used are not realistic, etc... You can clearly tell that whoever wrote these scenarios and questions, does not work daily as an MLO. This is about money, not about helping MLOs better and more efficient at their job.

Empire Learning provides an excellent learning experience. The course material is clear, well-organized, and easy to follow, even for entry-level professionals. The lessons are practical, up to date, and directly applicable to real-world scenarios, which made it easy to stay engaged and retain the information.
I especially appreciated how straightforward the platform is and how efficiently the content is delivered without unnecessary filler. It’s a great option for anyone looking to complete required education while actually understanding the material and not just checking a box.
Highly recommend Empire Learning to anyone pursuing or continuing their education in this field.

Worst CE experience ever!!
Constant reverification requiring logging back in using an idiotic draw with your mouse feature that is extremely sensitive. Why can’t you use a verification code sent to a phone like everyone else?
Forced redo of chapters completed after a forced logout. No countdown to know when you can move ahead.
Forcing people to sit and wait before moving ahead is total incompetence. Only the government would come up with something so stupid. You either know the answers or you don’t.
Complete irrelevant material. Nothing new to learn and multiple spots where the same material, including test questions, is repeated over and over for no good reason.
Complete waste of time!

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Our courses go through a rigorous NMLS approval process, and many of the items you mentioned—such as minimum time per section, minimum word counts, and overall timing requirements—are mandated by NMLS regulations and must be followed by all approved CE providers.
Regarding identity verification, BioSig-ID is a third-party authentication system required by the NMLS to verify student identity throughout the course. We understand it can be frustrating, but this requirement is enforced across all CE providers.
We always appreciate feedback from students and encourage you to reach out to the NMLS directly if you would like to share your concerns about these requirements.
Improvements Needed
Convenient. Could be more entertaining. Each lesson was 3 parts. Initial training, then a video review and then a written review. All three were virtually identical which made training more tedious. Also Bio sign in is very inconvenient when using a touchscreen. It never matches exactly and I had to reset my login 16 times. I probably spent an hour just trying to login. Another item that was inconvenient is I tried to do my training on lunch breaks and breaks. Don't put a save progress screen under every lesson if it really doesn't save your progress to start back on that page. I often had to repeat lessons I already covered. Another 1-2 hours I didn't need to spend, plus I had to go through the automated timing session over again when I already covered the lesson. Once the minimum overall time you need to spend on training has passed I don't believe you should have to have a minimum time frame for every page.

Empire's customer service is second to none!
However the course material repeated itself at the very end. The HELOC module & the video for that played through twice. There was no way to exit from it either. So it prolonged the course since, in order to complete the course and access the final exam, one had to sit through that material to the end

Thank you so much for the kind words about our Customer Service team—we truly appreciate it!
We also appreciate you bringing the issue with the HELOC module to our attention. We’ll be sure to have that video reviewed and updated as soon as possible so it doesn’t impact future learners. Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback—it really helps us improve.
I’m glad I selected Empire Learning
I’m glad I selected Empire Learning. I loved that I could choose the combination of courses from their selection. The material was easy to follow and the modules were set up perfectly with both readable information and video summaries. They reported the courses to the GREC in a timely manor. I highly recommend using Empire for your CE credits.

I thought it was really well put together, direct, and did not waste any of my time. Keep in mind I've been doing these for about 20 years and definitely have some opinions. The tests were helping memory for details, quick, and easy to understand. (no trick questions) I'll use them again next time!

I’ve been a real estate agent for 16 years and have used many CE websites. I accidentally signed up with Empire Learning and even tried to cancel at first. Thankfully, I gave it a chance — and it turned out to be much better than any other CE course I’ve taken. Clear, easy to follow, Highly recommend!
