I am too angry with this curriculum to write anything constructive at this time. The lack of quality/accuracy/usefulness of this material is scary since so many people use Intuit products to support their livelihoods. Instructors, your job is not to evade questions or answer with corporate responses like "We are looking into it", we know it is not happening. It does not take six months to fix a typo - I know, I wrote training material for a living, but it doesn't take six months. As an instructor, your job is to educate, to guide the learner through the subject. That means actively engaging in discussion and providing more definitive answers to questions. If there is an issue with a question in a quiz or lab, don't just browbeat the learner with some obscure platitude. Instead, since questions are tied to specific sections of the course, suggest to the student they go back to the supporting section for review.

Actually create a workbook that has the student apply the concepts taught in all the courses to doing the books for the same company. You kind of did it in the course presentations. This way, the student would have a consistent enviroment to work with eg common set of accounts to be used.

Review your instructions. They are not clear. They read like somebody rushed through typing something in without thinking about it. if your intending to have something broken in a worksheet, it is best to clearly indicate it, because it is clear that what is presented does not reflect real world. And for learners just starting, that isn't needed. I was shocked at the number of people tagged as unenrolled!

Drop the talking heads. It got so tiresome listening to people who I had no idea of who they were and their signficance the program. This is a subject that requires a lot of hands on practice to master. A workbook with lots of problems would have been a lot better. Also a talking animated character teaching/guiding through all these modules really dropped the credability of this material. Honestly what was presented by these people was no different than what I was reading in "Bookkeeping for Dummies".

Very Useful Course It will give a full picture of how you can understand the financial statement with the Analysis Ratios and other tools with a simple explanation from the expert, I really liked the final step of all the case studies in all modules from Intuit Academy because it was a practical reality with a solving thinking, and we expect to see more advance courses from Intiute. Thanks for all teamwork

Honestly amazing course, I genuinely thought the host with the different scenarios was a great addition as it was not boring and engages the reader and the ungraded plug-ins are extremely motivated to actually study. All this seems extremely well thought out and amazing effort put into it. Plus the topics in the course were extremely helpful and useful. Thank you so much!

I recommend this course to anyone interested in Bookkeeping basic knowledge or a senior accountant who would like to refresh his/her knowledge, especially if you were working outside USA. This course will enhance your accounting vocabulary in USA English as well as knowledge in a very amazing way. Thanks to those who make this possible. Remain blessed!!

It's been 30 + years since I went to College for Accounting, at first it was very overwhelming as I haven't used accounting for anything. As the course went on things came back. I'm visual so this course was great. Looking forward to learning more.
