Fantastic presentation! I leaned so much for this topic. This course complements and closes the gap from the other courses that have similar topics. I am truly impressed how the presenter did his job! It is very sad that this course will be discontinued. I believe the content is not outdated - on the contrary - it is very relevant and up to date. This is one of the best courses that I have ever attended on MyCPE. Please reconsider if you really want to discontinue this course. People will not be able to have this valuable presentation to learn from. Thank you

Sandra Myers, CPA (US)

This presenter has a lot of good information. However, I find it a little hard to understand him during the entire presentation. He sometimes, 20-30% of the time, rolls his words together, talks really fast and moves away from the microphone. When he is speaking distinctly he is great.
