Featured Review
"I am currently working as an asset analyst at a multinational company. I perform all activities related to asset management, e.g. creating new assets, running monthly depreciation, and doing write-offs. I became a PRO user because I wanted to get a job in the field of accounting. I think the material is extremely detailed and very well explained, and easy to understand even without previous studies. I really like the video training, flashcards and quick tests that all help us deepen our knowledge. It's much more enjoyable than learning from a textbook. AccountingCoach’s materials helped me get my current job, and I'm confident that if I wanted to change positions and do more complex things, not just asset accounting, the materials would be very useful, as the whole accounting field is covered." - Kata F.
