24hourEDU lands 50-state NMLS approval for mortgage pre-licensure training

24hourEDU says it now offers NMLS-approved mortgage loan originator pre-licensure education in all 50 states and U.S. territories after securing approval for a new 5-hour Utah DRE law course. The expansion gives aspiring mortgage brokers a single online path to meet state-specific licensing requirements.

Why it matters: - 24hourEDU now covers mortgage pre-license education requirements nationwide, which could simplify licensing for aspiring loan officers navigating different state rules. - The new Utah course fills a state-specific gap for applicants who need more than the standard national education package. - The company says the broader offering is designed to reduce confusion and speed up licensing for new mortgage professionals.

What happened: - 24hourEDU announced full 50-state capability for NMLS-approved mortgage loan originator pre-licensure education. - The announcement aligns with NMLS approval of a new 5-hour online self-paced Utah DRE mortgage law course. - The Utah course is aimed at applicants seeking licensing through the Utah Division of Real Estate. - 24hourEDU said all 50-state training packages are available for immediate online enrollment.

The details: - 24hourEDU carries NMLS Provider ID 1405107. - The company offers online pre-licensure education, continuing education, state law modules and exam prep for mortgage professionals. - Some states require only the 20-hour National Pre-Licensing course, while others require additional state law modules. - Utah requires a 25-hour total package: 20 hours national education plus 5 hours of Utah DRE law. - 24hourEDU says its courses are 100% online and self-paced, and can be completed on desktop, tablet or mobile devices. - The platform includes free NMLS hour reporting and bonus SAFE MLO exam prep. - Training is pre-recorded video-based and includes downloadable lessons. - Licensed loan officers can also use 24hourEDU for continuing education packages, including the core 7-hour federal renewal course and state-specific CE modules. - The company says continuing education packages also include free NMLS hour reporting.

Between the lines: - The move positions 24hourEDU as a one-stop provider for both initial licensing and ongoing renewal education. - The Utah approval is strategically important because state-specific modules are often the part that complicates national licensing workflows. - A uniform online package may appeal to students who want to avoid piecing together courses from multiple providers. - “Receiving NMLS approval for our new 5-hour Utah online course completes a major milestone for our school,” said Joseph Tollefson, 24hourEDU's Director of Sales. - Tollefson said the company aims to provide the exact NMLS-approved education needed to get licensed and start closing loans.

What's next: - Prospective loan officers can enroll in state-specific licensing packages through 24hourEDU’s state licensing page. - Licensed loan officers can review renewal requirements and enroll in continuing education through the company’s MLO continuing education page. - 24hourEDU is expected to continue marketing its nationwide pre-license and CE offerings to mortgage students and active loan officers.

The bottom line: - 24hourEDU now claims a fully nationwide NMLS-approved pre-licensure footprint, with Utah approval closing the last state-specific gap in its core mortgage licensing lineup.
