"I discovered AccountingCoach while I was teaching an Accounting 1 class at the college I work at and provided the website to my students to supplement their learn experience. I know it made a difference! I am a Small Business Development Center adviser and workshop presenter and I provide the AccountingCoach website to my clients and workshop attendees to help them learn accounting. AccountingCoach is a great resource for small business people!" - Ida C.
