Featured Review
"I have been using the AccountingCoach platform for years now, and I have learned so much. Having a background in health sciences hadn't really afforded me the opportunity to learn as much as I would have liked on financial topics. This is why I use AccountingCoach. I help my husband with the bookkeeping in his business, and AccountingCoach got me started from scratch. I learned new concepts in very easily-digestible lessons and immediately applied what I learned on the platform. I upgraded to PRO to have access to all the additional features, which I do find value in. In managing my very small business, AccountingCoach has helped me learn how to navigate my own books. I don't know where else I would have gotten this education for the price. I am someone who consumes as much information as possible, as often as I can, to have the skills and knowledge to navigate daily life. I'm also the type of person who enjoys structure and organization. Though I'm sure the information is available all over the web, chaotic and directionless, AccountingCoach has given the knowledge I've sought out and presented it in a very organized manner. I love it. I revisit on occasion to freshen up my knowledge and practice. I thoroughly enjoy using AccountingCoach." - A.J.
