Overall good overview, but would have been helpful to have updated later in the year as additional guidance has been released. Also believe there is incorrect information in the section regarding qualified improvement property regarding depreciable life and bonus eligibility for property placed in service after 2017.

In a few instances, the slides did not match what the instructor was saying. Made it confusing as to what was actually correct. I appreciate the information, I just want it to be accurate.
I hope this feedback helps improve this and future courses.

There were a few math errors, and spelling errors that were obvious (for the most part); however, they still deterred from the clarity of the delivered information.

I think there should be separate courses for corporate taxation and individual. I found it hard to follow when the 2 were discussed together.
