"AccountingCoach PRO landed me a job I had been praying for. I have a background in Banking & Finance with basic accounting. However, over the years while working in the bank, I majored in customer service and branch management. When I left the bank, I was out of job for about a year but volunteering in an NGO. I sought a job as a Finance Officer in another NGO (where I am presently working) but I needed to brush up on my accounting skills. AccountingCoach PRO helped me get back on track and I landed the job! And with a lifetime membership, what more could I ask for?" - Marge E.
