Department of Financial Institutions
Message from the DFI Secretary
Dear Notary Public:
Welcome to the Department of Financial Institutions Notary Public Tutorial. As a
Notary Public for the State of Wisconsin, your responsibilities are many. The tutorial,
which includes written information, knowledge quizzes and the final exam, is provided
to help you understand the duties of this department and the trust which has been
placed in you when you become a Notary Public and a public official.
Obviously, it is impossible to cover all the questions related to your duties as
a Notary Public. Therefore, we encourage you to contact our department if you have
questions concerning your responsibilities. We are here to assist you in any way
that we can.
Sincerely,
Cheryll Olson-Collins, Secretary
Department of Financial Institutions
