"I am currently working for a Pharmacy Benefits Management company (PMB). I discovered AccountingCoach when I was in college going through the accounting program. Sometimes in school, the concepts weren't always clear to me, or I just needed a concise refresher on certain accounting topics. AccountingCoach fulfilled both of these needs for me. I became a PRO user because I found value in the additional resources I received. It really helped me to solidify my understanding of the accounting process. I like the materials on AccountingCoach because of the clarity and conciseness of the information. I find myself wanting to brush up on things from time to time, and because of the format of the AccountingCoach platform, I'm able to quickly find what I need. I have benefited from the materials both academically and professionally. In school, I did well in my courses, and I know that using AccountingCoach contributed to my success. Professionally, I have felt confident in communicating with my coworkers regarding accounting concepts, which has in turn helped me to progress in the company. Sometimes when I’m working, I reference the templates provided on AccountingCoach to guide my work. I will be using this site for years to come!" - M.G.
