Great information in this training. I really appreciated the examples and how Jennifer walked through each one. I also liked the jokes at the end of each section. Exam question 13 is oddly worded though. I had trouble understanding what it says.

(Fraud Dispute & Resolution M.. at Army & Air Force Exchange Se..)
I enjoyed this course as it was very conversational, and I loved the corny jokes as a nice way to break up the pace. Example of conversational: the presenter mentions her husband is a CEO and his company was working to identify a variance in statements. It's little things like that in courses that humanize the presenter, and also give a very relatable real world view and application, versus courses that sound like someone is reading from a textbook.
The pace was nice, and the volume of the presenter was good as well.

Comprehensive course with balance between some real life examples and general explanation of policy. Instructor creates all of her classes to be interesting and relevant by focusing on the most important areas, also as a subject expert she can narrate freely without simply reading the slides, and also we get chapter-end riddles :))) Classes are more advanced than most on Illumeo, which I appreciate.

As an ex-public accountant now working in industry, this course was an excellent refresher on the importance of professional skepticism. While it focused on the audit setting, it still held value to encourage all accountants to evaluate data, assumptions, and work product with skepticism to promote integrity in any work environment.

The CPA's obligations as they relate to fraud are far less defined than the technical expertise they obtain during school studies and field work, and this course does a good job of emphasizing that. Professional skepticism is less of a technical skill and more of a soft skill, and this course did a good job of distinguishing.

This course was well worth the time. Maintaining professional skepticism is obviously easier said than done. All CPAs (not only auditors, be also those dealing with tax clients and those working in industry) should practice maintaining a sense of skepticism. The result will always be a better work product.
