CRAIG –
Internal Controls and Fraud Prevention are both critical topics in which individuals really need to grasp – Especially from a bookkeeping and audit perspective. The AIPB has done a great job at providing a high level overview of a very sensitive topic.

RHONDA –
While this course contains some very valuable information, it is out of touch (with the 21st century technology) and lacking in several areas; which I hope AIPB expands upon and goes into much more depth – in the very near future. Nonetheless, this course is worth taking and offers some common sense guidelines for basic inter-office and plant controls designed to discourage less than desirable behavior.

Enlightening! – But a little difficult to rate – again, much does not apply to my practical work, but the information seemed to be presented and explained well.
