Procure to Pay Work Stream 1 CPE

THANK YOU!!!! The course has been very helpful. I knew the practice of AP, now I have the theory. I highly recommend this course.

Great Course and tells you how to deal with situations with difficult people

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.

Good reminders and the delivery was excellent. Good to go back to the basics.

it was very intersting to have the contection to the case in Canada.

Good refresher course on how to use pivot tables. I like having a workbook to test with along with the lesson.

This text based course was very detailed and provided good examples of real world application

I found the course to be very useful in understanding the different terminology that can be used across several departments.

Basic over view of P2P for those unfamiliar. Good course to understand the flow of the P2P cycle

This is a good Introduction to Treasury. goes over Risks

Good in depth components around AP. I found the KPI section helpful. There was some overlap in the modules but overall well done.

I'm just starting the course. I'm glad that I have some prior background or I may not have grasped the study material. The instructor gives great detail in a straightforward informative manner.

This course provides a detailed overview of all the elements of a typical procure to pay process.

Excel files to perform examples are not attached.

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.

The course covers a significant amount of material that is often uncommon such as disposal of divisions and going concern treatments. It's well done and interesting.

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.

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.

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

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

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

Excellent course, very well organized and presented, with practical examples provided.

This course would be much more effective if all of the files were provided and the student was able to follow along and complete each of the functions being taught.

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.

The class was presented in a perfect pace for my learning style. The slides are easy to follow and great for future reference.

The course itself was great, but the exam had issues (unclear question wording, duplicate questions, answers considered wrong even though they exactly matched the definition given in the glossary, 79% grade when I got 19 out of 21 correct). The study guide provided was laid out as a syllabus with no helpful content.

Enjoyed the instructors enthusiasm of the subject. However, this is a technical course and the materials (PDF) were not helpful in providing a take away for what was taught.

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.

Very tricky and need thorough analysis of the final examination

These courses helped me to understand and get a better overview of bookkeeping. I took financial accounting before these courses and this brought it all together.

Very good overview of the procure to payment process.

The questions on the final exam were very poorly worded.

This has been the perfect course for an individual who potentially will use these AP skills. I highly recommend anyone working within financial services to obtain these certs!

This course gave me so many strategies to improve my well-being. I hope I can utilize these strategies on a day-to-day basis and I look forward to benefitting from the results!

been using pivot tables for years and still learned something new

strongly recommend this information to be delivered internally to "internal" customers.

Thank you for including the example questions, I found them very helpful in understanding the course content.

Wanted a bit more information of why when C and S crop are selected, they are not 1099 eligible, even if under the LLC option, C and S are selected the same rules apply.

This course is a good overview of professional ethics for MD CPAs

The material is structured in a systematic order, which makes it easy to follow.

The information in this course is very helpful. It was very informative & makes you aware of how you protect your data, especially electronically.

This is a very good 101 accounting course, if you have never had any accounting before it may be a bit intimidating however it is a great overview.

I would have liked to had a worksheet for the examples.

Great course and highly recommended in today's ever changing technology and fraud occurrences.

Enjoyed this course! Great insight into future dealings within companies.

Having a calculator to practice with, embedded in the course would be most helpful

This is a tough course. Lots of good information though and lots of examples.

I would agree that the information provided was very good to know but just a lot to take in.

This was an informative primer on IT General Controls and was easy to understand.

This was a good, high level overview of the procure to pay process.

this course directly helped me in my own working capital analysis project for my company, and confirmed a lot of aspects of working capital I was already familiar with to confirm my analysis was on the right path.

Solid overview of ERISA and its requirements. I got what I needed from the course.

This course was great. It talked about the various types of culture, employee behaviors, how to recognize when culture needs a change, and how to implement it. Overall, I would recommend this course!

A great overview of ethics if you are looking to refresh.

Clear, well paced and enjoyable. It was a good review of key financial concepts with great story telling.

Instructor really explains thoroughly & provides wonderful & helpful supporting documents & materials for afterwards. It still takes me forever to complete, but it is a well planned out & conducted online learning video.

Very comprehensive; great refresher course for me!

This course is a very basic but important guide in setting goals

Everyone involved or impacted by this process flow at a company should take this course. Really nice over view and in depth view of how this process should work!

not a fan of this course. too much story telling and all over the place, hard to follow. If youre looking for a new commentary then you'll love it.

Your courses have all been so wonderful, so informational, and so thorough--in short, greatly appreciated by me! Thank you for sharing your expertise, your wealth of knowledge, your inclusion of examples! I have greatly enjoyed reading and listening to all of your lectures thus far.

I really thought this course was spot on, totally one hundred percent the truth. Everyone should take this course, it teaches you the art of problem solving conversations and how to become a better listener for sure.

Good overview of mentor-mentee programs, benefits and relationships.

This course was very helpful. I learned some neat tricks and tips for inputting data.

Great class- one of the better ones! As someone who has a published book, I can attest to the importance of editing.

Great course, thank you for passing along your excel knowledge. I enjoyed the short, but thorough courses on how to really utilize the workbook.

Was able to gain information I have not used in Excel.

Great course. Very easy to follow. Great examples from the professor.

I wish I had taken a course like this 40 years ago! I really learned most of this through experience and a passion for knowledge, but it would have helped to have this road map at the start of my career. I have learned that self-confidence gained from competence, honesty, and compassion for others helps you be a leader. Always striving to do the best for the benefit of everyone will bring you success.

Accounts Payable Specialists will get the most of of this course

This course was very informative, it helped me to have a better understanding of the procurement process, and liabilities.

Well presented course with good examples. Good discussion of different types of modifications and how to account for them.

Depending on the student's knowledge of Excel this may be a little basic. However, there are several little tricks to incorporate. This instructor performs a double presentation of the material, it is great if you are unfamiliar with what is being taught, it can be redundant if you are more knowledgeable about the subject; but as a general approach I feel it is helpful.

This is a great course and should be taken and put to action by all managers/upper-mgmt. A lot of times I hear the 'vision' but don't always see it implemented or followed

This course on automation for accounts payable specialists gives an insight to what these types of resources provide. It can help to reduce risk and increase efficiency.

The material was explained clearly, I was surprised how simple it was to understand the lesion. Anyone who processes accounts payable will benefit from this course.

I appreciate all of the practice. Lot's of problems help to develop proficiency at speed.

A video presentation would have been helpful to augment the paper.

This was a good refresher course on financial statement basics.

Great reference material. Would recommend to others.

For ANYONE in an office environment, some very good topics are covered. The slides were presented well and were easy to follow

Great coverage of topical area. I enjoyed the approach and would make this part of every professional's annual CPE.

Great content! Lots of takeaways that can be applied immediately.

It was great to review and/or learn anew these important topics.

Excellent recap of the 5 steps of RR and solid examples of their application to learn from. Recommend this course to solidify understanding of concepts.

Great, quick, and handy guide for finance managers to keep in mind regardless of role. First Illumeo PDF slide deck I've saved for the reminders.

Overall a good course. I didn't agree with every recommendation but it was a different view point that was worth hearing. Easy to follow and the information stuck. Hope to take away a few nuggets and apply to the "difficult" people I have in my life.

I like Arlynne's execution. Her comparison to reality keep folks engaged.

This class was very informative, I like how they gave detailed examples to have a better understanding.

It would be beneficial to release the wrong answers for the final exam.

The speaker rushed while speaking and sounded like he was reading the whole time. Very boring. The slides didn't provide much detail at all which is not great for future reference.

The content is very good, applicable, and hits on the key things every new manager should reflect on!

This instructor courses are always very helpful and are well thought out. I always look for her courses on-line as I always learn something new and interesting from her classes.

Very good refresher! Must take it every few years. Very good coverage.

Peaked my interest and will now look to delve further into ethics law. Interesting case study of IWK.

needs a transcript of lectures. Test questions have no relation to final test.

I learned a ton in this class. It was thorough and entertaining.

Duplication of efforts noted in having two separate teams to setup vendors or add/edit vendors.

Organized and well discussed topics, easy to follow and understand.

I'm not a technology person, so though I understand the steps I would like to have automated, I don't understand all of the IT related stuff involved. So I wish the slides were a little less crytic and held more detail.

The answer spreadsheets were very helpful as a reference.

GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT COURSE

Most engaging course I've taken on this site. Instructor does very well holding your attention and keeping it interesting.

Good overview of financial forecasting methods. Would recommend for beginners.

It was very helpful that the presented walked the audience through specific scenarios to help calculate the currency values.

Great course. The instructor was very informative!

This course is more of a thought generator than a how to.

Very insightful. I'll keep an eye out for her other content.

The course was short, simple and straight to the point.

Course was very helpful. Quiz questions were not as aligned to Payroll accounting as they could have been.

The course explains the theory and basic concepts but would have been better if taken a practical case study and explain with all the accounting entries and how it will affect all the accounts.

very informational in a short amount of time. if you pause and work the examples with Blair, i think you can really learn a lot in a short amount of time.

Case studies are very helpful for practical application of the standard.

It's a little look into the background of Accounts Payable. It was helpful to learn when liabilities is established.

Good course on FCPA. Instructor has great delivery and made it interesting.

The format and design of the course made the learning process easy to understand. I was especially impressed with the depth of terminology laid out under the glossary of terms listed in the 2nd PDF. Overall, a course I would highly recommend to fellow accounting members.

This course was very easy to follow and I gained greater insight on what type of leader I am.

I felt like the final exam was too easy and the wrong answers were very obvious. Though it was good for me/my CPE credits, I don't think its an effective way to evaluate whether or not I understood the materials.

The presenter lacks tone and speaks far too slowly to remain engaged. The presenter also reads the slides, providing very little additional insight.

Very good overview, Excellent coarse if you are new to A/P.

This course would be very helpful for entry level AP staff that have not worked with the P2P process.

Good insight in personalities and leadership. Excellent explanations of human behavior

Good course, working as accounts payable is always good to take this type of course.

would have loved more examples especially on how fair value assessment.

A very relevant course to a person moving into finance executive positions.

The course is excellent, it adds a different perspective in the function of the CAE as part of the company.

everything was very detailed yet simple to understand

I liked that I learned more about credit memos, non-po's. New employees changing to an accounting payables position will get the most from this course by the videos.

Simply the best instructor I have found on Illumeo. Extremely thorough, technical and practical.

I really enjoyed this course. You make it fun and there was a couple of times I even laughed out loud. You kept my attention the entire time. Thank you

Good course for insomniacs. Presenter was boring.

Some more error rectification technique may be included in this course.

As someone who does not have a background in AP, I think the wording on one of the last slides sums up this course well. AP is more than cutting a check! This course gives a perspective of the many things that an AP department should be responsible for.

ok

The training made me understand more of the client situation and effective ways to communicate with the customers. To address their disputes/queries efficiently.

The class delivery was efficient and effective.

good review material

Excellent course

Great tips! Thank you!

I liked how he explained how the working capital ratios effected ACME to provide a real life scenario

This course is worth checking out. Like most Excel programs, it covers some items that should have been learned through regular use but is lso shows some new approaches.

Great information for someone looking to help their company develop an investment policy and manage the investment process.
