"I am currently a returning adult student studying business and accounting. My Intro to Accounting professor recommended AccountingCoach, and it has been invaluable. I opted to become a PRO user because I knew it would serve me well, not only throughout my schooling but in my career as well. The certificates, flashcards, and practice quizzes are a great way to master and maintain accounting concepts. The site is very user friendly and has all the information I could ever need. A fantastic resource!" - Renee S.
