Course Description

Online education represents the single most important shift in the field of education since the invention of the printing press. With the advent of cost-effective communications technology, information is more readily available and accessible across the globe than ever before. In order to understand the impact that online education will have on the future of the accounting profession, we need to understand how online education has already changed the world for millions of people.

The accounting profession is not immune to cultural changes in the world, and the delivery of education in this way will continue to permeate the profession at an even faster rate. Education as a free good is increasing in presence and expectation. By offering free education to accounting professionals, presenters position themselves as leading experts. This increased exposure is thereby followed by enhanced sales and profits.

This webinar is designed for you to experience firsthand the power and potential of using the online education format to share important content with colleagues, clients, and potential clients.

Dana, TX

"As we become busier and busier and travel becomes more expensive, I am in agreement that the free on line seminars are going to have to be the wave of the future. I am an older CPA/EA who is also handicapped and uses a walker for mobility. I can sit at a desk and computer and do my job but can't run around the country any longer so it is a given for me in order to continue to be a productive professional."

"Another great webinar. CPA Academy offers a wide variety of interesting webinars. I've attended many and always walk away with a feeling of time well spent. I'm a CPA, currently not practicing, but still keeping up the continuing education, to keep my license current. If I had to pay for all the CPE's, I most likely would have given up my license. Thank you very much for offering all these free classes."

"Scott is definitely a thought leader in the space. If you have any interest at all in free online education and using it as a possible business model to supplement a practice OR general interest in the trends in global education and the impacts on traditional methods (paid Universities, paid CPE, etc.), you owe it to yourself to take this course."

"Scott, as always you are a wonderful presenter. Kept the topic interesting. As self employed CPA's, my husband, our partner and myself find your topics at CPA Academy interesting. The seminars allow us to obtain CPE without leaving our office. And free!!!! That is huge to a small firm. Thank you!"
