The course provided fundamental information, however the textbook was dry and one dimensional. A complementary workbook and/or a video/cd lecture would have been a great enhancement. This would allow for listening to the material then reading it, then working the problems.
AIPB note: This course is now available as an online course with an instructor.

Good info, but some of it seemed a bit dated, especially when it came to credit cards. A lot has changed recently. It could probably use an update. But overall, lots of good information in the course.
