"The lifetime PRO membership is indeed one of the smartest purchases I've ever made. I have used it all as a refresher course, as a study guide, and reference to my current client issues. The extraordinarily clear and engaging explanations make self-study possible for anyone with an interest in accounting. I simply can't recommend it enough. Thank you AccountingCoach." - Donald R.
