What Our Students Are Saying

I recently started a new job that entailed quite a bit of Accounting. Although I have a Business Administration degree, I didn't have much accounting experience, so I decided that I needed to take a course at ACC. My employer was willing to pay for me to take an accounting class, but I would have had to pay for the class up front and submit receive a passing grade before being reimbursed. While looking through the accounting courses for the semester I realized it would be too difficult for me to take a full semester with homework and projects due on a regular basis, as my elderly mother recently move in with me and I am caring for her.

Since I had taken Continuing Education courses from ACC before, and had a good experience in doing so, I decided to see what they had to offer.

After reading through the Accounting & Bookkeeping Series, I realized it covered exactly what I needed in order to help me do my job more effectively. Since the series had already started, I decided to take a couple of the individual classes, which were part of the series. From day one, I was impressed with not only the class, but the instructor, Mr. Hussain as well. He is relentless in making sure that you have a clear understanding of all of the material. He offers a lot of his time to make sure that you receive your moneys' worth.

I have since began the series and is almost at the end of the term, with Mr. Hussain. I am actually looking forward to my second year into my job. I am confident that the training has prepared me to do my job better. I recommend anyone who is looking to learn accounting in a short period of time to take this course.
