Learning Experience: the CFI offered course on reading financial statements is good for learning purpose. I have learned from this course is that how to evaluate an organization by looking their Financial Statements. the pros of this course is that we learned something new which I have not learn earlier in school. and cons of this course is that they ask the MCQ based question from there provided material so that everyone can answer easily.
Faculty: they are providing the lecture online in recorded mode. No live session take by them when I was doing this course. In this course they cover basic accounting and also cover evaluation methods of entity.
Course Support: by this course I shift from Audit domain to Accounts officer domain
