"I am currently a staff accountant. I just LOVE AccountingCoach because not only did it help me get into the accounting industry, but it helped me get the job I have today. I am now retired, and my background was in human resources, but I wanted to get into accounting. I didn't want to go to college before seeing if I would like it, so I started to apply for jobs in accounting and quickly saw that it required a degree. I researched for a creative way to get into the industry and came across AccountingCoach online. I decided to give it a try because I wanted to get some skills, and thank goodness I did! I went through the modules, which taught me the basic skills of accounting. I took the quizzes and used all the resources, and it helped so much. I did this for 6 months before I started applying for accounting jobs and landed my first accounting position in accounts payable. From there, I continued to progress using AccountingCoach to assist me along the way and have worked my way up to the position of Staff Accountant. I have now been in the industry for over 5 years, and I love it. AccountingCoach is the best resource out to get your foot in the door and to progress in your position." - Michelle M.
