This course was well prepared and much needed in the accounting/bookeeping profession, however; I do feel that it does need to be expanded to include more context on ethics. Over all I enjoyed the course.

This course helped me see other potentials for fraud. I have dealt with a couple of companies that had been victims of fraud within the company (substantial amounts) because of lack of internal controls. As a subcontractor to several companies, I make every company owner aware of potential loopholes. A valuable course for every bookkeeper and business owner. Would like to see this course expanded.

Good course. It was very informative. I recommend the course add material on electronic fraud which is more prevalent with today’s modern technology. Also, material on securing corporate data would be applicable.
