Good refresher course that could benefit all from goal setting to delegation.

Jeff was very entertaining and super informative! I already knew the top five shortcuts but the named ranges information and the fun icons on the conditional formatting was very helpful. I'll be using these tips and tricks going forward.

The course was very informative and interesting. The skills to be involved with the Internal Audit function are both technical and interpersonal. As we work towards this function, it is difficult to find staff with the right skill set. The instructor was very good and understandable.

Great course - would highly recommend for anyone interested in topic.

Good course overall. Was a great audio course that made it easy to walk and learn simultaneously.

More content than I was expecting. Went into some detail with how to calculate pricing. I will be taking the two other courses in this mini series.

The course did a nice job and explained important, relevant information in a manageable and easy-to- digest manner.

The examples would be better if written out. It is hard to catch by just listening.

Subject matter is very detail oriented. Instructor is reading her script, therefore it lacks engagement.

This class gets into the details of short-term rentals. There was more to it than initially thought.

This course was pretty straightforward and easy to follow. This was the first text-based course Ive done. The test questions corresponded well to the text.

This was an excellent course and I felt like it provided a guidebook for necessary courses of action and reminders for those trying to ascend in his/her careers.

Very good concise synopsis of IT controls and their synergy with COSO.

I would have liked a video with an explanation with examples. Also, I don't see an explanation of how an applicant is defined. Otherwise a helpful course.

This is a very technical course and a beginner cannot understand the course. The question paper is very tough and needs a lot of analysis and research before passing the exam.

Excellent course i learned today about the best Wild, then you.com, and all other claude. I can see is a new world we are in and happy to be part of this transformational Journey. This course opened my eyes

Great course. I like the format. It gives a good overview of the general controls and then focuses on the sales order entry process exactly like advertised.

Great course. Went by quickly and had a lot of useful information.

Illumeo deletes reviews that contain negative feedback, so I've learned not to provide real feedback. However, this is necessary to retain access to the course, so all courses will be rated average going forward.

This course was great! I loved learning about financial statement presentations

It was packed with detailed information with great structure!

excellent overview of AI and ethics. Ethics is often overlooked in technology development.

this is a basic course but can be a good refresher as well. If you need a refresher, this would be it.

content was a little dry and the wording of the final exam questions was terrible...please get a 3rd party to review for clarity, consistency and understandability

Good Overview of RR. I would recommend it for someone who wants a good general overview of the standard. The slides are relevant and to the point.

This was an excellent overview of the budget process in review. It is not a detailed budget process but it is sufficient to outline the major points.

It's a really good course for me, especially as I spend 25% of my work interviewing suspects. I really liked everything about the course.

This was a great short course on 350-40. I would love to course that compared and contrasted the accounting rules for 730-10, 985-20 and 350-40.

Excellent explanations and discussions. Examples were well explained.

Mostly focused on financial reporting...Would have been nice to have it more general for internal audit.

I thought the course and instructor were very good. With all the material to test on, I thought it was unfair to have 2 out of the 5 questions calculating PV when this course never showed how PV was calculated.

Rob does an outstanding job of effectively teaching the Key Performance Indicators and KPI Dashboards. The course was well-structured, providing a comprehensive understanding of KPIs and their critical role in measuring and driving business performance.

This course had adequate review questions which gave a representative sample of the final exam.

This course was very interesting. I liked the examples he gave and how he Incorporated his own experiences into the lecture.

I am a CPA that works in a publicly traded company and most of the ethics courses are firm based. I like the perspective on this course being non-firm.

vhhgvfghhh ggggfffrtghbcddt hhy g gbvggghhvgbb bbghhbghhb bghbghbhh

It's hard to distill the entire history of ethical thought down into a 2 hour business course, but I give credit to the instructor for making the effort.

I did not know how to do sumifs so this was very helpful. I did know Vlookups but it was interesting knowing the difference between them. I would recommend this course to anyone who doesn't know how to do either.

This was a very thorough yet straightforward introduction to higher-level Excel concepts. The course will only give a basic understanding of using tools like Power Query and VBA Macros, so further courses should be explored to gain more proficiency in these areas.

I really enjoy the instructor and the way she presents information, this was all just a little broader than what I was expecting

Two great formulas that I use all the time! If an accountant does not know these formulas, this is a great webinar.

Very basic course that would serve as a very high-level intro for someone with no prior accounting or payroll experience. I liked the practical examples using actual amounts and journal entries.

Great course, great job, thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a fantastic course! This course was chock full of great tips and general ideas. Definitely a ton of "a ha" kind of moments and very helpful for those of us at the middle management level who would like to try to convince the Executive level that moving even at least to data mining would be helpful. Also, really appreciated the presenter's use of helpful visuals as well.

Helpful. Im glad I have the text to refer back to when I need to. A table at the end that summarizes the differences would have been much appreciated.

This was a good presentation on effective presentation techniques. Mr Cook did a great job

Great - thanks for the info. Good course and well written/laid out. Very good Very good Very good Very good

This was a good in-depth discussion on fraud identification.

A great intro course into Excel, I would recommend to others.

Virginia ethics course, it's required for CPAs and this format works

Lynn did a good job covering The Controllers role and main job functions ? Requirements for job qualifications ? Where controllers spend theirtime ? The controllers changing role

I believe that there is some audio repetition about half way through. Great course, might just want to take a look at that.

This course is a good summary of internal controls, the importance of which is growing as organizations, regulations and technology evolve and become more diverse.

Lynn Fountain's lessons are consistently thorough and give thought-provoking examples. I particularly appreciated that what to do and what not to do actions were presented with the different types of difficult personalities throughout this course.

I learned more than expected. I liked how the instructor explained a step and then showed examples step by step. The course was not to lengthy and it covered some useful shortcuts.

Extremely thorough presentation encompassed in the gradual addition of detail to each slide.

This course is very informative as to how Power BI can help you create visual reports.

Interesting class, but I felt like it was just assumed certain items were known. I have taken previous classes from the instructor and still struggled to complete the course

This course on documentation on internal control process was very eye opening to all that is involved to create and verify internal controls.

This course is more for someone that's more advanced that I am because it was so fast and I didn't have a workbook to follow. I was able to pick up and follow on a few things.

The information provided was great for beginners, but some of the methods seem to be outdated. Specifically as it relates to vlookups. I think details on the xlookup function would be a game changer for some! Also a further analysis of using index and match together.

good thank you so much, it was helpful. really helpful.

The material is dense and detailed. Be prepared to read and reread to fully comprehend.

Solid course to refresh knowledge on revenue recognition

Detailed instruction by author. Refresher course still if you know Excel.

Interesting course. Presenter made it interesting informative. He was also able to laugh at himself, which made it entertaining.

A lot of this was review for me but the layout and structure of the course was great for anyone relatively new to excel.

I found the course to be very high level and basic. The content covered material that would be found in a principles or intermediate accounting class. The references to using manual or paper ledgers seems outdated.

An overall solid summation of the important characteristics of forensic accounting. I would recommend this to anyone interested in Forensic accounting.,

Love Blair's webinars! Definitely wish there were more available on Illumeo. He is one of my facotire presenters!

Good overview of the subject material. Covered all the major points.

Good ethics overview course with real life examples

I had not previously used some of these features but with later versions of excel being released it seemed some did not work as referenced or were not visible in tool bar so had to do some searching

fun small course; interesting to see which things I already do right and wrong per the course info!

Great course overview as an accountant who works primarily with SaaS products.

Broader than payroll, also includes general accrual accounting steps

Good overview of the new lease standard and where the guidance has changed. Instructor presented the course in a very organized manner. Just wished he provided some examples of the Day 1 and subsequent period accounting entries to further illustrate the concepts.

This is an excellent course for those being introduced to the basics of accounting or someone seeking a refresher on the foundational concepts of accounting. The teacher is very effective and walks through many journal entry examples.

great excel course, moves a bit quickly at times but the ability to stop and go back allows this to work. Great course.

Interesting class. The final exam comes more from the class than the handouts, would like to see all material in a hand out for reference after the class.

Terrible quiz questions....wrong tenses and unprofessional grammar (E.g. "little white lies" and "cut it"). Also, thanks for the interesting but totally irrelevant adrenal system questions.

Content and material was very sloppy. Overall the instructor was incredibly knowledgeable, however one of the key concepts of Mgmt Accounting is the usefulness and presentation of information and yet the information presented was poorly presented.

Honestly, I got more out of watching Ted Talks and YouTube videos ...

useful modeling, good high level overview, minimum character requirement, minimum character requirement, minimum character requirement,

Well thought-out content and presentation. Periodic mis-spell and various fonts made it seem less professional and the course was prepared on the fly with heavy Covid-19/Zoom fatigue :)

This course was a good refresher. This course is ideal for people not as familiar with accounting. Thank you.

This is a helpful primer on artificial intelligence. It really is going to help so many industries.

This is incredibly outdated. He is referencing Excel 2007.

Great overview for end of year, helpful for preparation and review of statements

Though I am not directly into cash flow analysis in my work, this lesson was an eye openiner for me.

This was a great course to introduce me to features of excel that I have never used to give me a great understanding of how they might be used in practical everyday applications of Excel.

Excellent refresher course and reference for future use. Instructor and materials are also excellent.

I don't know that I learned much new in this course; however, it was a good review of the basics.

I especially appreciated the David Foster Wallace commencement speech at the end.

I like the trick to think of at least 3 options or choices in deciding on solutions to a problem.

Enjoyed the class. Interesting to hear different ways of segregating duties in small businesses.

Great course to refresh my knowledge on the details around professional skepticism

This course was excellent. I learned a great deal. I appreciate courses such as this because it will help me grow within my career.

This was a good discussion on the audit process and how it works. Explains the process that goes into the auditing of financial statements.

they didn't give clear examples on the courses and it was hard to navigate through it unless you go to search by yourself

The course was very informative providing a detailed overview of various types of trusts and estate planning but was a little bit dry with not many real life examples.

David did good job explaining the basic uses of a Pivot Table and breaking things down in steps to make the process easy to understand. I'll use this knowledge in the future in creating Pivot Tables.

Some questions on test were very confusing. The amount of calculations required were also extensive. Should work to make questions clearer.

Materials need some improvement. They are just bullet points without any context. That's good for normal presentations, but won't be useful if trying to use as a guide later on when the information is not fresh in our minds.

Overall, a good course to learn about multiple lookup equations.

Solid course for understanding frameworks for ethical decision making. Useful for all types of businesses.

This is a high-level overview of information that all CPAs already know, but it's a great refresher. Highly recommend

Good introduction to the investing segment of the treasury function.

I have taken 2 of Mr. Ihde's courses. They were both very informative and helpful. Please bring more of his courses to Illumeo.

Presenter is easy to listen to but, the course needs real world examples - not just reading tax brackets.

Another great course - helps provide real-world examples to visualize ethical situations.

Very helpful study guide, and the examples are helpful to understand context. Would be helpful to have more examples.

This was a great overview/introduction to Power Query. Users with no exposure to the process will not be overwhelmed. Good supporting materials, but it would be nice to have access to the source files to make the practice more realistic. Overall highly recommended, especially to beginners.

In addition to macro recorder basics, I learned a couple of excel features! I appreciated the thorough explanations, common issues, and risks.

Nice introduction to budgeting principles and models to follow. Budgeting is such an important aspect of business especially for subsidiaries reporting to parent companies.

This course goes back to the basics in ethical behaviors for both individuals and leaders.

Enjoyed Mr Wu's presentation. Look forward to next class.

So many bullet points made this difficult to read

What I liked about this course is that the instructor was very effective and the learning objectives were met.

Lengthy course that requires reviewing state statutes. Good ethics course that is relevant.

The instructors explained topics in an easy to understand and real-world applicable manner.

This is a very good broad ranged discussion of the accounts payable vendor master processes and what should be considered.

It was a lot of good information that I was unaware of due to overwhelming work schedules these past few years since inception of TIGTA. The review and test were a bit confusing.. especially since some of the answers were not the same as an IRS.GOV site, so where to locate? Either way, the course and information was quite informative.

Terrific insights and very applicable. I pulled out my notebook for this one.

very nice and well structured course. can learn a lot.

I wish the instructor would go a little slower. I kept having to pause and go back. We should be allowed be told to open the examples and follow the steps as the instructor shows how to do something.

This course teaches you to how to think about thinking. Excellent how the presenter (who is excellent) explained the concepts using not just general but accountant specific problems.

some sections could be refreshed --ie) using 2016 acfe report to the nations versus more current report.

Course was relevant and a good road map to live all aspects of your life.

almost bailed when I saw it was 2014, but info is still relevant today and I did learn from it!

Learnt a few things I did not know about pivot tables

Great presentation as always. Lynn has interesting topics, provides insights, and keeps the material engaging.

Excellent overview of COSO and internal controls for preventing fraud in the workplace. Detailed welk-through of the 16 principles with examples facilitate application of the principles to one's own environment.

Direct, easy to understand slides and notes make this a valuable course.

Clearly presented with good examples. I already know and use many of these functions, but there were some tips I need to use more.

Good detailed course about conflict of interest of what it is and what its not.

Hope there are more follow up series to go into more details.

One of the best course I have recently taken - great job

Slides should be prepared in advance, no slide materials to retain and or review, and the exam questions were very poorly worded relative to answer choices.

Great pointers! This class is definitely beneficial. Would take again.

Detailed and informative course with plenty of examples to illustrate application of laws into practice.

Great information - the textbook was a good resource and I plan on saving it as a future reference material.

Having 3 different people jumping back and forth caused a lot of confusion and the material seemed to have gaps. Specifically betwen slide 22 & 23. At the beginning of slide 23 she says thank you for all of that insight....what insight? I didn't hear any insight from slide 22 as it seemed they skipped over half of that slide. The presentation was very choppy. I ended up stopping the presentation and just thumbing through the slides to get a passing exam. There are other really great courses on AI within Illumeo to explore

A lot of useful information on basics of accounting.

The instructor spoke a little slow for my taste. I had to speed up the video to help me follow along. Good course, though.

Not exceptionally helpful for excel users on a Mac....and lots of people use a Mac these days.

Too much repetition and not enough instruction on how outlook works.

This course is set up in great details. It is useful to both entrepreneurs as well as accountants.

very insightful esp for someone who deals with xPA deals

This course provides some great information. The topics covered are very helpful as well.

This was a good course on financial statement basics... if you don't know the answers to the questions, go back and refresh

Very basic overview - nice for those wanting to start to understand accounting and the basic financial statements.

Very well explained the concept with proper examples. Helps a lot for the corporate cost analysis. Really enjoy the course and easy to follow on his explanation. Great lectures and I will take more of Erik's courses.

PDF materials didn't match too much to the test. Please consider this before taking the class.

Excellent demonstration of functions. Really expanded ways in which i can increase efficiency.

userful and practical information. would recommend

I found the shortcuts to be helpful. the conditional formatting was really quick and didn't explain how the icon sets works. you can change the numbers and the symbols change - based on what criteria?

I really enjoyed the way Carlann handled this topic. I look forward to taking more of her courses.

It was very hard to learn. It was like reading the ASC 718. I was hoping to get some examples or some other way of teaching.

This class offered many helpful tips and formulas for budget preparation and general Excel maximization.

This was fascinating! Cryptocurrency always was a confusing concept to me, but Lynn did a great job of breaking it down in a way that was easily understandable.

Good overview, would love a follow-up course that dives even deeper on deal killers.

Material not specific enough in terms of definitions and concepts.

This is one of the worst classes I have taken. The lecture is obviously read off a script and not well done. The content of the slides is not in a great format. Finally the review and final exam have a bunch of questions that don't even make sense. Skip this.

The Course was very engaging and provided great examples of real life. The instructor is very enthusiastic and content is to the point.

There are some examples he talks about that include threshold numbers, but they aren't in the slides.

i thought this was a solid course and i liked the real-world examples because it made the topic more interesting and tangible.

I appreciate some of the functions that have been used in the past or can be used by combining functions to an extent that it helps understanding the new functions. But in this presentation there seemed to be so much of it became confusing or a bit of information overload.

the course is designed in such a way that it would give a better conceptual clarity about the topics.

This course was very difficult and the questions were confusing. I have never had to take a CPE credit exam so many times. Overall good information, but not in a format I could easily understand.

Blair Cook was an excellent presenter. The material was useful.

This is an excellent course and discusses that any individual in any organization would witness and should be aware of.

I've taken several of Lynn's courses on Illumeo. The content is good. However, the tests exhibit a pattern of unnecessary examination. For example, almost every 1 hour CPE course on Illumeo has 5 questions. This one has 10. Her questions are often wordy and contain multiple, multiple choice answers. It's more of an annoyance at the end of a usually informative session.

This course provided an excellent overview of cyber security. I would recommend this course for anyone, especially those newer to the field of cybersecurity.

It seems this course is suitable to those who already knew about the subjects discussed in this course. Otherwise, it's difficult to understand and make sense of the topics discussed in the course.

Excellent primer for internal control framework and necessity. Good use of examples in presentation.

Amazing to learn the competition between Vlookup and SUMIFS. The SUMIFS returns on both value and differ data type. It is great to use on daily payment report.

Excellent overview of the Blockchain. Very helpful.

Good topic. I would recommend this course to other fellow CPA's looking to complete CPE hours. Very effective at getting the point across.
