[Browse the store](/toolkits) Who it is for Illinois applicants, new or renewing, taking a Secretary of State-certified course of study and its exam, including bordering-state residents who work in Illinois. Not the right fit if You're a renewing Illinois attorney, judge or their employee who files the exemption statement instead, or you want the certified provider's 3-hour course and exam themselves. Why it is different - Written from the Illinois Notary Public Act and the Part 176 rules, cited in every answer. - Drills the numbers people miss: 30 days, $5,000 and $30,000 bonds, $5 and $25 caps, 7-year journals. - Covers both remote ink-on-paper acts and electronic notarization. What is inside - **Study guide.** The course and exam rules, qualifications and the $15 application, the $5,000 bond and terms, the seal, identity and certificates, prohibited acts, the journal, fees and advertising, remote and electronic acts, and penalties. - **100 practice questions with answers.** Multiple choice, with an answer key at the end and a one-line explanation naming the 5 ILCS 312 section or Part 176 rule for each. - **Timed practice exam.** Illinois's 100 questions as a timed browser test, offline, with saved scores; the study plan ends with all 100 again before the provider exam.
