The concepts were easy to understand since I already had a fair idea about accounting however, sometimes the visualization seemed to distract me from the course... Perhaps another type of visualization is better.
VK
This course has been absolutely amazing. My understanding and knowledge of the different types of skimming and forensic accounting overall have increased. The lecturer also makes it very easy to understand by including the implementation of cartoon characters and visual examples.
DH
If you want profound and holistic knowledge of Accounting and Auditing, then this is the right CPE course. This course gives insights into various types of frauds that take place in the Finance domain. It highlights different forensic auditing methods which are used to tackle the frauds, gives insights to the investigation methods. The course also offers various case studies which makes it easy to understand the problems, questions and examine the study and thus, get a quality knowledge about the subject.

Details and explanations for the specific disclosure requirements were the greatest take away for me. Great presentation skills and seamless execution. I will get my colleagues and friends for multiple other webinars
MB
The content and inductive communication for presenting was the most effective way of learning for me. Mark is an exceptional educator. Looking forward to learning more at myCPE.
RK
The methodology wherein, he had multiple example disclosure mentioned while learning gave an in-depth understanding regarding the disclosure consideration and requirements of the pandemic
RN
Keep doing what you are doing - the webinar was easy to join, and video and audio worked great.
IB
Mark was quite a presenter. I felt, he understood the need of the hour and communicated as per that. Very much required content and presented flawlessly.
DS
All the way Mark's content and a detailed explanation about the process of preparing the disclosures step by step. Definitely recommended.
AD
Fantastic Presentation Skills And Take Away Information. Super Knowledeable Presenter

ME
When he is sharing a video, he needs to be sure that when he shares his screen, he also clicks the button to share his computer sound so that we may also hear it.
NG
Great CPE material
PG
I thought the knowledge the presenter had was excellent
CE
Great material...I just wish I knew that the 8 hour course was a combination of shorter courses - a lot of stores told 2, 3, 4 times. Mark does an amazing job!
SL
Mark is an outstanding presenter and his practical approach to fraud made this webinar especially good and relevant. I truly appreciated his citations and I will buying a couple of the books that he suggested. And as always, the best examples are often on YouTube - and Mark's selection of those pieces was also excellent!
DL
Great seminar and speaker!

The on-demand webinar was very convenient to fit in required CPE. The instructor was very engaging.

provided quality information that was relevant to the current status.
TF
Each of the review questions must be reviewed for grammar and clarity. The instructor's presentation skills were terrific, but all the presenters I've seen so far constantly clear their throat which is distracting.
CS
There is so much controversy about handling PPP Loan forgiveness that this seminar helped clarify. Time has passed with no direction for many months, and many financial statements are already issued. Further, banks have been so difficult to process applications for forgiveness. All these things have made this topic so uncertain for a long period of time.
MV
Over all experience was good.
MR
its good
LM
Instructor was very clear and made the information relatable. There was some repetition over the 8 hour session.
DK
There was issues with the tech audio during the presentation.
KO
Convenient, high level update.
JP
lots to cover and he did good job of staying on track to get through it all
MW
It was great There was time in which the video he was presenting did not have audio. He then spoke about it for the next 15/20 mins and it was hard to follow. He did offer the link after the presentation but it was hard for me to follow the section without understanding the video. It was a little annoying but not a major issue.
EG
The first and second 2-hour sessions covered nearly the exact same material. The shoplifting prevention material is not necessarily applicable to all participants - would recommend less on this topic. The time could be used to cover other internal fraud schemes.
WL
I found the profiles of fraud perpetrators very interesting.
EB
Great
HG
webinar was too long, for 8 CPE hrs at 50 min each should have finished much earlier....once a seminar becomes too long the audience loses interest , and suffers information overload.

The content was well done. The time monitoring of the video was off and I had to run the video a second time.

The content and topic are both great, however it does seem a bit rushed towards the end.

a downloadable pdf and exam would be helpful. its hard to review the video all the time
RJ
was good
SW
The presenter really did not go through the slides, he rather talked a lot on the background and talked through requirements. I wish he would have touched more on the exact changes as that is what I thought the course was to cover. He had a nice tidbit of information and work papers at the end that was the biggest take away for me.
SL
I guess I lack sufficient specific knowledge and there was not enough depth for me to comprehend what was being taught.

CK
You are already aware
SA
8 hours which consisted of multiple courses lumped together. So much repetition in the material and examples. Practically all examples and course material was repeated at least 4 times.
OS
I felt the information could have been presented in a quarter of the time.
SH
very good
DZ
good
ER
I was hoping for more detailed topics or checkpoints to consider covid 19 impact on disclosures. Some of the questions in the Final Quiz are grammatically incorrect. They read as if a non-english speaking person wrote them. Put them through a grammar check next time.
RM
KW
CS
The course material was good. However, some of the material was duplicated. This made the exam very difficult (as the example were different in the two sections). Also, trying to re-review the course materials was very difficult. I kept getting the spinning wheel - very aggravating.
DC
The webinar seemed like it was recorded previously and said the same information over and over again.
CA
The instructor went over the same material with the same examples and same polling questions twice during the session. In other words, it could have lasted 4 hours instead of 8 hours!
MP
This was not one continuous seminar but a bunch of shorter seminars Heard the same stories and info multiple times. Too much overlap.
LS
This was a very repetitive webinar. The first three of the four sessions was the same material worded just slightly differently.
TM
The instructor made the class! Good Job!
