It was my favorite course however, the wording on the exams could be a bit confusing at times and the final assessment was a bit difficult for some reason.

Thank you.

As a hands on learner I really appreciate the practice that is provided through case studies and quick quizzes to test our knowledge as we progress through the course.

On the one hand, these courses were comprehensive and the activities made them more interactive and fun. However, on the other hand, there were a lot of typos and mistakes in the tests. More importantly, there were many instances in which terms were used in the tests that were never introduced in the information given previously and sometimes questions were even based on concepts that were not previously discussed or defined (like owner’s draw). Additionally, because of the nature of an online course like this, no one can really help you with understanding more complicated problems that you get wrong. There are case studies at the end of each class and if you complete them incorrectly, you will answer the quiz questions wrong but the only comment they make is to check your math on the case study. This is very unhelpful but I don’t see any way around it.

Overall, the course is very informative and the third and fourth weeks are good recaps of previously learned material. There are some issues with this course (just like the previous ones) where sometimes the math is incorrect which can cause confusion. I do wish there was more actual practice of entering information into the journal, general ledger etc. before actually getting to the case study. I think it would be helpful in solidifying the information that is being presented to have more hands on practice. Even if the practice wasn't a requirement of the course, but a link to practice sheets (with answers) or something like that. The professional bookkeepers (experts) offer great advice and detail regarding situations that may occur, but it is often difficult to envision what they are talking about without actually doing it yourself.

The contents of the course were good. The instructor/cartoon was a little irritating - tone of disrespect toward clients and superiority wasn't appreciated. The XLS exercises were helpful but frustrating bc you can't tell where you are going off track. Lots of information. Good overview. Using a trial version of accounting software as a compliment to the manual processes might be helpful for comparison.

It was a good course overall, however, this was the most challenging for me, as I felt there was not support available (not sure if there is) if a question arose. Most of my questions were self-answered. I wish there was someone you could reach out to for clarification. But I understand that this is the structure of these courses. Never the less, I enjoyed and learned a lot.

There were a couple of techincal glithes with the exercises. Also, there could have been more thorough preparations for the final exams. I would be beneficial to do a practice worksheet with a tutorial walkthrough before taking the final exam. Also, it would be great to have a final version of the exam excel worksheet after passing the exam to review correct entries.

I would give 5 stars, but the Case Study Quiz had at least one answer that was incorrect. Interest Expense is $85, and there is nothing to offset that amount, so one cannot have a Net Income of $8500, or anything that does not end in a 5. If anyone who is able reads this, please correct it for future students, or contact me and explain how I am incorrect.

This is a very informative course. I learned a lot about liabilities and equity and how it affects the various financial statements and how to book the journal entries. I really appreciate the worksheets at the end of the course and wish they provided more of these types of on-hand practice with the concepts through out the course and not just at the end.

It is nice getting these scenarios but, I wish it had more hands-on activities. Just moving boxes with amounts around it not enough. The only time you really do a ledger or anything was to complete the test at the end. There should be more of that throughout the course to help at the end.

Overall the concepts are explained well but there are technical errors present especially in visualizations. This is true for all 4 courses in the specialization. This course and the Assets in Accounting have more errors than the other two courses.

The information covered is valuable. The end of the course has a lot of work with spreadsheets like a school final exam. You open them and they are a blur of information. In today's world, you'll be using Quickbooks and not penciling in odd bits.

Fantastic course, lots of information but skims over important aspects that are then a major part of the assessment at the end. I didn't feel comfortable with payroll (expenses vs liabilities) and feel this let down an otherwise great course.

Great inofrmation, just need more instruction with manually filling out the spreadsheet ledgers. When you have always used computers to run the reports for General ledgers, journals, trail balance, etc. It is dificult to do by hand.

This course had issues that once you marked a section complete it would uncheck as you advance to the next section and you would have to go back and remark as complete in order to show it completed. Very annoying.

Overall this was a good course. My issue was the case study wasn't in balance to start with so my impossible to see if I needed t correct something or it was from an error from last period.

After the final exam it would be nice to be provided the correct worksheet/spreadsheet so that I could compare to the one I completed and see where I made my mistakes.

Payroll section is not useful unless you are American. Rules are different for other countries. Other sections are straightforward but it does cover topics quickly.

Though some of the exercises frustate me as it wasn't working, overall the course is still a great help in refreshing my accounting knowledge plus I learned QBO.

Having a hard time with the actual journal practices. Would love a "review" file where everything is correct to compare-maybe after the test? So confusing.

There seems to be some missing information for the Case Study. The beginning cash account balance appears to be off, or there is a transaction missing.
