Featured Review
"I am a 24 year Army Reserve Veteran who decided to make a career change by pursuing a MBA with a specialization in Accounting and Finance a few years ago. I had zero accounting knowledge and my curriculum was extremely tough so I really needed to grasp basic concepts fast. When I stumbled upon AccountingCoach online I quickly discovered a treasure chest of information that helped build my accounting foundation. This past August I graduated with a 3.83 gpa and will pursue my CPA within the next four years and I owe a great deal of credit to AccountingCoach." - Datron P.
