I have sent the course evaluation with Final Examination Answer Sheet. I really appreciate this course as Bookkeeper because it is part of my daily job and will help to avoid some practical errors especially How to correct current vs prior errors. I will continue my preparation for bookkeeping certification.Now, I am working on Mastering Payroll.In general, the courses I took from AIPB are more practical and give updated information.

Mastering Correction of Accounting Errors is really practical to me and much more easily to understand than all of any books which I’ve ever read before. Surely, I will introduce this book to my friends.

I thought the course materials were great. Examples & practice tests help my confidence going into the test at Prometric. However, the practice exam was nothing like the Prometric exam. I ran out of time and almost failed!

Information was presented in a concise and thorough manner. Very easy to understand. Examples were relevant. Quizzes reinforced concepts taught in the lessons. Quizzes and back of the book exam thoroughly prepared me for the certification exam!!! I highly recommend this course especially if taking the AIPB certification exam.
