Effective course that teaches the basics of accounting. I like the step by step explanation of how the different types of accounting statements tie together. It helps me understand the concepts better and apply them to the different scenarios.
One thing I disliked is how it doesn't show the questions we got wrong. It would be better if the website shows incorrect answers after the final exam is complete so I can review them.

If we've failed the final exam, I wish the the program would show us which questions we answered correctly, and which were incorrect so we can go about correcting the incorrect ones. Having to restart to a blank test leads me to second guess answers I might have gotten right initially. I don't learn from my mistakes if I never knew which had been answered incorrectly in the first place.

Overall it was a very good course. The instructor went over from the very basic journal entries to constructing the financial statements. I really liked the journal entry practices.
However I do think that was a lot of information to cover in just about an hour. Many of the contents can be a little confusing to understand for someone who is new to accounting.

Like the way you put everything transaction represented in debit/(credit) this makes life so easy. Furthermore, I like the fact that you used working trial balance as a base to complete the income statement, statements of equity changes and balance sheets because it really draw out the real flow of how financial statements to be put up.

This course is great for anyone needing a basic understanding of accounting. Since accounting is the language of business, it's imperative that all those in business have this fundamental understanding. Although this course is geared towards beginners, it can also be helpful for those looking to brush up on their accounting.
Vickie Jackson

This is an excellent overview of accounting. True beginners might be a little overwhelmed by the amount of information provided but the instructor does an excellent job breaking things down and explaining each step. It is also a great refresher for those of us who've been away from basic accounting for awhile.

Very basic. If you are truly new to accounting the details about when to debit or credit various types of accounts will need some supplementary knowledge not found in this course. Without the extra help you will not be prepared to consistently make correct journal entries.
Decent beginners course.

Instructor crystalized organized basics of accounting in a very understandable format in only an hour. I have a BS in Acctg. and an MBA, but took this as a refresher course since I don't deal with accounting much anymore. Detangles confusing debits and credits so it all makes sense.

I understand that this is supposed to be a fast course, but had trouble following along so quickly. This was especially true when trying to follow along on excel. I did like that the course was shown with an example, and that the example was consistent throughout the entire course.

The samples provided is very useful. I am posting journal entries into P/S for a large corporation after not doing any journal entries for 6 years and needed the crash course. Now, in looking at this example I believe I can set up a great trial balance to review my entries.
Jeremy Ratto
(Senior Accounts Receivable Representativ.. at Yelp)
The course was really illuminating explaining the debit and credit process. I liked thinking of them as negative and positive balances rather than left and right. I really liked the examples but wished we spent more time on the building financial statements portion.

Thought it was very helpful; he did speak a bit fast so it was difficult to take notes, but I could always pause the video or refer to the PDFs at the end, (so it wasn't much of an issue).
He explained things very well most of the time.
Vanessa McLaughlin

I thought this was a good course. You would need to know just a little bit about accounting to not be confused since it's such a quick overview, but is a great refresher for someone that may not have seen the information in a while.
Margaret Winn

Good thorough review of the basics of accounting. And I liked his graphic of Assets = Liabilities +Equity, that the boxes on either side of the = have to be exactly the same size. That is a good concept to share with non-accountants.
Hannah Quick

Very informative course, however it contains loads of information to retain in one hour. I suggest you block off 2 hours to take notes and to fully comprehend what is being taught in this course. Knowledgeable instructor!

quick paced and a high overview that anyone with some basic financial background can appreciate as a first step into some of the formal aspects of financial reporting. Good/challenging content for the basic level.
Very clear powerpoint and video. A solid review and foundation for basic accounting which is necessary for any financial/accounting position as well as others in all backgrounds should have a basic understanding.
