After taking this course, I can see where & how I can apply my skills and love for numbers. I am confident in my decision and cant wait to put all the pieces together.

Thank you, Coursera & Intuit!

This course was well put together. I used to feel so intimidated by finances. The interactive videos and practice exercises do a fantastic job of explaining concepts learned throughout this course.

I found that some of the material was not as clear as I needed it to be and therefore caused me trouble when trying to place information.

IT was a really nice way to refresh your thought, the only things to make this course a five stars is to have more practical things.

A lot of information about QuickBooks was great but then you have to hand do a ledger to take the final test. That was frustrating.

You need supplemental 3rd Party research, training, and videos to compensate for the course expecting you to understand so quickly.

I didn't like the instructor; she was my obstacle to complete the course in time. I suggest changing. Nice content.

There could be a better flow. Also a syllabus that remains on the side would be helpful for progress tracking
