This course far exceeded my expectations and is one of the best MY-CPE courses I've attended. The instructor was clear, concise, and conversational in his presentation and the material was robust and extremely well organized. All the resources he shared were very helpful and greatly appreciated. I look forward to other courses offered by Robert Nordlander. Thank you!

I have contemplated starting out on my own as an independent accounting/management consultant. This was very insightful from the perspective of initial considerations for performing forensic accounting, more around business considerations, compliance and marketing your skills. Mr. Nordlander's experience and advice is straightforward and interesting.
