Cool course!Guys, who can't answer question #3 in the last test check this: Trial Balance is a representative of each nominal ledger account and will hold either Debit or Credit Balance, not both.

The material doesn't lend itself to a captivating tale but it is presented very well and the fact that it can be done at one's own rate is wonderful for those of us who have limited time.

The quizzes and activities during the online lectures are too leading. Then when you're faced with the end-of-course case study, you're a little lost.

Good information but insufficient practice time. I don't feel that I'll be ready to actually do the work even after passing the certification test.

Does not efficiently prepare beginners for the test. Needs to include more practice content, to be completed by the trainee, with not as much help.

Some principles were covered too quickly, Final Project did not provide instructions on what assumptions to use to complete inventory tab.

The details of how most aspects of this particular course could have been explained far better. Assets in Accounting was a bit confusing.

The quiz grading is terrible and needs work. Format has to be too specific. Right answers marked wrong all over the place.

It is a good introductory course, it's easy to understand. Adding more examples would improve the course greatly.

Lots of technical failures with audio, which affected instruction, and some of the content did not seem to fit.

Most of the videsos have glitch on them and get cut off, the explanations sometimes are very ambiguous.

The quiz does not contains the answer when you submit. Lack of explanation.

I am too angry with this curriculum to write anything constructive at this time. The lack of quality/accuracy/usefulness of this material is scary since so many people use Intuit products to support their livelihoods. Instructors, your job is not to evade questions or answer with corporate responses like "We are looking into it", we know it is not happening. It does not take six months to fix a typo - I know, I wrote training material for a living, but it doesn't take six months. As an instructor, your job is to educate, to guide the learner through the subject. That means actively engaging in discussion and providing more definitive answers to questions. If there is an issue with a question in a quiz or lab, don't just browbeat the learner with some obscure platitude. Instead, since questions are tied to specific sections of the course, suggest to the student they go back to the supporting section for review.
Actually create a workbook that has the student apply the concepts taught in all the courses to doing the books for the same company. You kind of did it in the course presentations. This way, the student would have a consistent enviroment to work with eg common set of accounts to be used.
Review your instructions. They are not clear. They read like somebody rushed through typing something in without thinking about it. if your intending to have something broken in a worksheet, it is best to clearly indicate it, because it is clear that what is presented does not reflect real world. And for learners just starting, that isn't needed. I was shocked at the number of people tagged as unenrolled!
Drop the talking heads. It got so tiresome listening to people who I had no idea of who they were and their signficance the program. This is a subject that requires a lot of hands on practice to master. A workbook with lots of problems would have been a lot better. Also a talking animated character teaching/guiding through all these modules really dropped the credability of this material. Honestly what was presented by these people was no different than what I was reading in "Bookkeeping for Dummies".

This course was good for providing an overall view of the bookkeeping process, but there were many frustrations and errors throughout. Checking the forums for answers, I've found that the same problems with incorrect answers and incomplete information have persisted for years without being fixed. While the course did give me some knowledge, it gave me more anxiety than it was worth. I'm surprised that a company as big as Intuit would release such shoddy educational resources. I'm a good student so I persisted in figuring things out on my own, which caused a 1-hour case study to turn into 3 or 4 hours of work (maybe more). I feel bad for anyone who may have invested in this program but was unable to put in the time to research their own information just to complete this course. Even the meager $24.50 I spent was not worth the cost. I would not recommend anyone taking this as their intro to bookkeeping as it would probably discourage them enough to turn them off to the career choice.

Not what I wanted or expected in the course at all.
I signed up for this class to be given hands-on lessons on how to use Quickbooks. I am stuck watching videos 90% of the time, and forced to do Excel sheets the rest.
Everything you learn will require supplementary information from other websites because there are no true notes available, just subtitles for the videos.
You will not be given enough practice to do or understand anything by the time you do your final grades, so be prepared to be extremely frustrated if you don't immediately understand what you're doing.
if I didn't need a document to prove my job skills these days, I'd quit and demand my $50 back.

Eh, not very good or informative. Information is dull, not the best and their is not enough true and legitimate practice opportunities given.
Final case study feedback is poor and their answers for some of the questions like final debit/credit balance in the trial balance and total assets in the balance sheet seem wrong. Some feedback there would be appreciated.
I suggest other students to not take their "mistakes" on the final exam too seriously. Just make sure your debits and credits balance out and make sense.
