AUBURN, NY - Law Scholar Alfred E. Piombino will lead a rare, evening (in-person) New York State Notary Public Workshop on Monday, May 11, 2026 from 5:30 until 9:30 p.m. at the Cayuga Community College Main Campus, 197 Franklin Street, in Auburn, NY. Parking is free and no car permit is required. This event is the only in-person training event of its kind in Central New York. Public transit is available at the college campus.
This acclaimed program provides a comprehensive review of the New York State Notary Public role, duties and responsibilities and delivers effective official state law examination preparation.
“Attendance at this seminar is a must for every prospective Notary Public to properly prepare for the serious legal authority, duties and myriad responsibilities of holding this public officer appointment,” said Alfred E. Piombino, the state course pioneer and faculty.
“Simply taking and passing the 40-question examination, implemented in 1950 by New York Secretary of State Thomas J. Curran, is a good start, but it’s not sufficient preparation by itself to fully understand and execute all the required duties,” said Piombino.
“First appointed as a New York Notary Public in 1981, I easily passed the state law examination because I was a business school student, but I really didn’t fully understand the scope and depth of my duty which inspired my further legal research," he adds.
“This frustration with a lack of accurate, adequate resources sparked my sense of intellectual curiosity and was the catalyst of forty years of passion for dedicating myself to this niche, legal scholarship, researching, writing and teaching - to not only help other legal practitioners better protect themselves from legal liability, but also to protect the integrity of the civil and criminal court systems,” adds Piombino.
“Notarial legal ineptitude, intentional or unintentional, definitively leads to the insidious denigration of all courts, erodes public confidence and stymies good-faith efforts to effectively and fairly deliver justice to litigants, victims and defendants," Piombino emphasized. 
The New York Secretary of State administers the proctored, written law examination through the Department of State on a regular basis in North Syracuse and throughout New York, but not at the training event. Official examination schedules will be distributed at the briefing. Four sample law examinations and answer keys are provided to every participant as a self-study aid for review after the briefing.
Piombino is a highly acclaimed teacher, court expert witness, prolific book author, past state court official and former State University of New York (SUNY) college business law faculty. He is the renowned scholar on New York Notary Law and Practice and the original curriculum developer and faculty of Notary Public educational programs at scores of public and private colleges throughout New York, including Cayuga Community College, Onondaga Community College, SUNY Oswego, SUNY Jefferson, Herkimer College, and Tompkins-Cortland Community College.
US Citizenship is not required for any applicant, nor is a felony conviction an automatic disqualification from receiving an appointment by the New York Secretary of State.
Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) union member-state employees may submit a CSEA Tuition Benefit Voucher to pay for the full cost of the training course; plus the CSEA Certification &amp; Licensure Examination Fee Reimbursement Benefit is also available to reimburse union member state employees for the NYS examination fee.
Space is very limited for this Central New York, special author appearance and pre-registration is required. The required textbook (Notary Public Handbook: A Guide for New York) is included in the college fee and will be distributed to all registrants on the day of the event. The cost of the half-day program is $125.
Specifically for New York State Notary Public commission holders, a special New York State Notary Law Update Briefing is scheduled on Tuesday, May 12, 2026 from 9:00 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. at the Cayuga Community College Workforce Development Center, 248 Grant Avenue in Auburn.
