"It is what it advertised to be”
It is what it advertised to be. Professional quality training and CPE tracking and certificates; systems knows AZ CPA CPE requirements and categories. I've needed help on several occasions and the assistance was quick and effective; however, there were some problems with data entry. The assistance sometimes asks for input, but when I try to type it is dissallowed for some reason. On several occasions I had to close the popup to get it out of my way.

Inside This Article
If you’re taking CPE courses as an Accountant to level up and advance your career but don’t have a certification, you could be missing out on a considerable part of the CPE experience.
Having certifications will show that you’re knowledgeable about other accounting areas and make you more qualified for promotions or new job opportunities. Understanding the different areas of accounting, ranging from financial management and cost analysis to tax preparation and auditing, will help you succeed as an Accountant. So, why not couple the CPE courses with a certification or two from myCPE
Here are seven certifications you can strive for and make the most out of your CPE courses:
