   I really enjoyed learning the fundamentals of accounting- I just found that it was hard to stay focused as there was so much reading. Easy payment option & I thought it would give me an accredited qualification

   The course was clear and easy to follow. It was especially good that I could do it in my own time. The tutors grading and comments on the assignments submitted was unexpectedly quick. It was good to know that one was on the right track before submitted the next assignment. It was all good for me. I’d make no changes

   It was cheaper It offered a basic certificate course in accounting which I was after It was all online and therefore convenient Assignments were manageable and suited my current workload/ level of commitment Spelling and grammar of all info on this website and assignments need checking and correcting as I often found errors and this is recommended if you want to improve your professional look.Few questions in the assignments were also a little unclear and could have been worded better to make it easier to understand for the first time accounting student. Thank you for the fast turnaround of marking my assignments and overall this course has been a good and useful tool to developing my skills professionally and personally. The level of work and info given suits a first timer like me, so thank you. I will definitely consider coming back again in the future when I have the time and space to study again.

   The Career Academy website was easy to navigate which made me find that the "Introduction to Accounting was exactly the course I wanted to do. It was in my own time and no pressure and the fees were affordable.At 59 years old I was a bit concerned about doing the course because I have not studied for so long. But there was no need to worry, the course was easy to follow and knowing the support of the tutors was always there if I needed them.Thank you to all concerned for helping me complete this course I truly appreciate it.Trish Davies

    A brief introduction on Accounting before I am going to do a bachelor in accounting.
    This really helped me on making the decision if I wanted to go further with accounting. Everything is clear but could use a little bit more explanation in assessments and text book on the more difficult aspects of the course.

    The Career Academy’s affiliation with organisations like CAANZ and Xero made me feel that this program must be of a high standard. I want to undertake a bachelor’s degree in accounting at some stage, and I felt that studying accounting at the Career Academy would be of great benefit towards my future studies. In one of my assignments I made mention of how some of the writing in the course materials is a bit sloppy. Aside from that, the course has been a great introduction into the realm of accounting, and I’m very glad that I’ve taken it. It’s been a good confidence builder, and has motivated me to continue studying in this field.

    This course in particular was recommended to me by my accountant as a good course to get me on my feet in managing my accounts and running my business, as I had no previous knowledge. Having a reasonably short online course that I could complete in my own time was very appealing. I did notice some spelling and grammar mistakes in the course, which was a little disconcerting. I now have an understanding of what my accounting is talking about and what I need to do as a business owner, so thank you!

    It’s been a fantastic entry point into the realm of Accounting. My only gripe has been with the sub par writing that appears in some of the course materials. However, overall, everything has been great. The feedback I’ve received from the tutors has been very motivating, and I’m looking forward to studying further with the Career Academy.

    I found my course was good, useful and presented well. Helpful having work online as I have a busy life with work etc, tutors were helpful with work and questions and gave good feedback. Only problem was a slight administration issue which took a couple of months to resolve but apart from that, I was very happy overall.

    All good, I’ve worked through a few of the modules which have all been fine. The tutors get back to me quickly – it’s about a one day turnaround which is great. The course is pretty informative.

    I went with this course because it had the best reputation. I thought having the same person mark the assessments would have been better. But it seemed to work regardless.
    Thank you too all the Tutors who read and assessed my work.

    I decided to study with The Career Academy because they are a reputable company, but also I could do it in my own time which made it easier to find time around my busy works schedule. Have thoroughly enjoyed the course (Introduction to Accounting) and experience with The Career Academy so far, so much so I am considering signing up to another course. The tutors have been very helpful and fair in there comments and marking.

    1. Accredited course
    2. Easy and interest-free payment plan
    3. Can learn during free time at one’s own pace
    4. Excellent, easy and prompt tutor support

    Explanations of terminologies and concepts could be improved. People with zero background in accounting some explanations could be vague.

    Overall, this is a good course.

    This was recommended by my manager who is the Fixed Accountant and I work under her, she thought a basis in accounting would be useful as we touch multiply parts of the business included Balance Sheet and P&L. The course was very well structured and easy to follow what was required – the only thing that confused me was I the second module and you are asked to watch a video, the series kept going and I was not sure if I was required to watch more so I watched about a dozen of them not realizing I only needed to watch one. Wasn’t an issue as later in the course they used those videos as well.

    I enjoyed it and it cleared up a couple of things for me that were a little confusing not having done any accounting since High School 10 odd years ago. I enjoyed it, the tutors feedback was great. Thanks 🙂

    I chose to study with The Career Academy because it gave me the freedom to work and gain a qualification at the same time. There were a few times I used the Ask your tutor button and I dont think it worked so I was having to call the tutor instead.
