"I found myself taking on a new position in the office with my current employer after 15 years on the floor so to speak. I started looking for some bookkeeping courses from the the local college or school boards but found nothing helpful. Came upon AccountingCoach and I knew I could stop looking. Everything I needed was here, and it was free. I thought it was too good to be true, where's the catch? But there was none. The more I read the more I loved it. I signed up for the 'PRO' level so I could track my progress and see how well I was able to retain what I was learning. Thank you for this website. Keep up the good work, and I'll get back to my homework. Learning this way is fun." - Vic M.
