LEARNING PATH: AI-Powered Accounting

-

Virtual

10.00 Credits

This learning path helps CPAs move from "AI curious" to AI capable by building practical skills across prompt engineering, core AI concepts, and real accounting use cases. You'll learn how AI fits into the profession, where it can improve efficiency and judgment, and how to apply tools like Copilot in Excel to real workflows. It's ideal if you want to stay relevant as automation expands-without getting lost in jargon-while still grounding the learning in accounting and audit realities. 

LEARNING PATH: Audit and Risk Fundamentals

-

Virtual

10.00 Credits

If you want stronger audits with fewer surprises, this path is built around the core building blocks: risk assessment, internal controls, walkthroughs, and operating effectiveness testing. It reinforces how to identify what can go wrong, where controls fail, and how fraud risk often shows up in control gaps. CPAs take this path to sharpen planning, improve documentation quality, and make testing more meaningful—especially useful for audit seniors, managers, and internal auditors responsible for higher-risk engagements.

LEARNING PATH: Auditing Key Financial Statement Areas

-

Virtual

10.00 Credits

This path is designed for CPAs who want to strengthen execution in the areas that most often drive audit risk, adjustments, and review comments. It walks through practical approaches to auditing cash, inventory, estimates, payables/expenses, and PP&E, helping you improve testing choices, evidence quality, and professional judgment. Take this path if you want a tighter, more repeatable approach to auditing the "big buckets" that can make or break engagement quality.

LEARNING PATH: CPA to CFO Leadership

-

Virtual

10.00 Credits

This path helps CPAs expand from technical expertise to executive finance leadership-the mindset shift needed for controller, finance director, and CFO tracks. It blends strategic competencies (ratios, budgeting/forecasting thinking, behavioral finance) with real-world leadership topics like supplier relationships and what it takes to operate as a fractional CFO. CPAs should take this path to strengthen advisory value, communicate like a finance leader, and make more confident decisions that go beyond compliance.

LEARNING PATH: Combatting Fraud

-

Virtual

10.00 Credits

Fraud risk is evolving, and this path gives CPAs a balanced toolkit across prevention, detection, and response-without making it purely theoretical. You'll explore control-based prevention ("Fraud Busters"), external fraud countermeasures, and higher-risk topics like money laundering, plus practical considerations tied to modern work patterns (like the gig economy). CPAs should take this path to better protect clients and organizations, improve skepticism, and recognize red flags early-before losses compound.

LEARNING PATH: Ethics and Professional Responsibility

-

Virtual

10.00 Credits

This path reinforces the ethical backbone of the profession by covering real scenarios CPAs face: technology-driven dilemmas, malpractice risk, fraud/embezzlement case studies, and professional ethical considerations. It's built to strengthen decision-making, professional skepticism, and risk awareness-especially helpful for CPAs renewing licenses and firm leaders setting the tone at the top. Take this path if you want ethics training that feels practical and job-relevant, not checkbox-only.

LEARNING PATH: Financial Strategy and Analysis

-

Virtual

10.00 Credits

This learning path is for CPAs who want to translate financial data into insight-sharpening analysis, budgeting, and performance interpretation. You'll build skill in statement analysis and forecasting fundamentals, then level up with case studies and "numbers-to-narratives" communication (including storytelling in financial reporting). CPAs should take this path to become more valuable to leadership by turning reports into decisions-and decisions into clear explanations stakeholders can act on.
