Enjoyed this course as part of the Online MBA from UIUC. The concepts are solidly explained with examples and plenty of practice exams that you can re-take unlimited times to test your understanding.

I have been using most of the terminology in my regular work , however now I could understand it better. I am sure the applicability of the terms would be more appropriate . It was a good learning.

I did every reading twice, download all the pdf lecture scripts, and converted them to Word documents so that I can highlight all key points, and still, there are one or two questions in modules 3 and 4 I cannot get right. The wording on the question is confusing. Questions can and should be difficult, but to write it to the point of almost trickery seems uncalled for. Other than that, this course breaks down information very well, in an easy-to-understand manner.

This course is simple and straight-forward for anyone who wish to knows the difference between financial and managerial accounting. Also, the course provides compact summary including basic accounting equations and easy-to-follow slides. However, the beginning of each lecture, especially the review parts, have long intro slide which I find unnecessary.

I liked this course. Professor is very knowledgeable and live sessions were really helpful. This course requires watching videos and book reading. I wish there were more details provided during video lectures like completing the business cases for non accounting students.

I found very useful and interesting. The key learning through these courses (ABC and CVP) could be implemented at any of teh organization directly. Faculty (Mr.Gary) explanation was very simple and clear and material used in this course is very useful for reference.

Seems well-designed to test competency. However, didn't seem appropriate for those with absolutely no basic knowledge of accounting terms (e.g. what is "Gross Margin"?).
