(40 rating)This is really a refresher course where Lenny reviews prior courses but he puts it all together, showing how various features can be utilized to build a robust dashboard.
This was a very informative course and enjoyed the instructor presentation and knowledge. I dont have no background in this area, however I wanted to get exposure and was surprised to see so much information on the subject matter. Will take additional courses with this instructor.
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
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.
Of the many, many courses I have taken on the Illumeo platform, this was definitely one of the best and most insightful. I have always found elements of "behavioral finance" to be fascinating and powerful in planning, strategy, and business performance. Mr. Stephens has bundled the leading theories and presented them as a unified new "dimension" for planners and leaders to factor in. He has done so in a manner that CFO's and other business leaders will undoubtedly find easy to digest, replete with useful examples. The consideration of these concepts will undoubtedly add value via improvement decision-making and more enlightened risk assessments. Thank you for such a quality contribution to the Illumeo portfolio!!
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.
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 refresher course on how to use pivot tables. I like having a workbook to test with along with the lesson.
This course had very good examples and case studies. Overall good overview and thought provoking.
The title is misleading, I thought the instructor was going to talk more about the concern of the CFO in running the organization, new technology adoption etc.
Pretty good, although wish there was a bit more color added to slide text.
This is a helpful primer on artificial intelligence. It really is going to help so many industries.
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 especially appreciated the David Foster Wallace commencement speech at the end.
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.
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.
Good overview of the position for new people. Slides captured the relevant points and the case studies were helpful.
The points made in this presentation would be very helpful to any member of any organization.
Great course! It takes some time and attention to absorb, but I will use what I learned.
This was very helpful. I learned a lot. The presenter is great.
materials are 6 years old. Google algorithms have changed and continue to change. Course should be updated. Would have liked to have seen discussion abour White Hat and Black Hat SEO.
effective course for entry level email writing. course could show how to avoid so many emails to start with
Excellent overview of covered material. Examples and support material were helpful in understanding each excel tip.
This is a good, quick refresher course to get your mind going during Covid isolation.
great class thank you. i will recommend. i am so glad i took it.
This course did a really nice job with individual case studies and footage of historical figures to illustrate the contrasts in leadership.
Great overall course. Enjoyed the examples of what auditors look for and how they manage risk and where they will be looking. Wish it was more in depth regarding the financials but great handle of the subject matter.
This was a good refresher course on financial statement basics.
There should be a handout which can be referred to with more information that assists with the exam. This took longer than 3 hours.
The content is very good, applicable, and hits on the key things every new manager should reflect on!
Very useful for anyone who is considering implementing a workflow system.
Good organization of tips. Nice to know I already use many of these, so it's nice to know I've had good mentors. But, there are some I can add. Good presentation, easy to listen to.
It was a great course with a good overview of ERP implementation. However, it will be good to have some specific examples.
This course is a comprehensive overview of the guidance with helpful slides and examples.
Fraud: Focus on Internal Controls to Prevent and Detect Fraud is a good overview course. The instructor used good examples and highlighted good outside resources.
needs a transcript of lectures. Test questions have no relation to final test.
extremely high level. needs more examples of what can go wrong. More discussion about orders of magnitute effort and cost
This was a very good overview of the new lease accounting process with excellent examples.
Course was very helpful. Quiz questions were not as aligned to Payroll accounting as they could have been.
Really helpful to see the side-by-side presentation with Formula based reports vs Pivot table reports
Good course on FCPA. Instructor has great delivery and made it interesting.
This course was clear and easy to understand though you do need to have some general knowledge of the older rev rec models. There was also great use of examples for current business models.
Good insight in personalities and leadership. Excellent explanations of human behavior
Very informative and easy-to-follow course. Great instructor. Look forward to other lessons offered by this instructor
Great insight on how Lease Accounting will change under IFRS 16. And all the decisions that must be made in properly booking right of use asset and liabilities starting next year
Liked to keep up to date with new changes.
Like to see the instructor and not just slides.
Material was well organized, insightful and helpful. At some points the presenter seems to get in a hurry and falls into speed-reading the script, making it a little hard to follow, but overall a good course and I recommend it for the toolbox.
Very comprehensive and extremely thorough.
Great information and well presented. Personally gained a gret amount of information for future use in reporting.
Very helpful. Learned many new techniques for building reports.
Excellent course
