Very effective and engaging presenter. I appreciated Mr. Granger's enthusiasm on this subject especially how he tacitly reiterates a written statement on the outline with personal examples in his experience in the field. The discussion-quiz questions that he inserted throughout the lecture was appropriate, timely, and helped me significantly in retaining and understanding the material.

This was not a bad course. The instructor was knowledgeable and conveyed the information well. The materials were thorough and provided a good resource for reviewing the information for the final exam. I did notice there were a lot of typos in the exam questions. It wasn't too bad and didn't impact my understanding of the questions, but it seems like it could have.

This course was exactly what I needed as I was going through my first review for a client. I have a background in external audit and internal audit, but a review is very different in scope. Thank you so much for a great course! I honestly don't know how you are able to remember so many great examples, but it made it so much easier to relate to the material.

This is a very detailed and complete review of SSARS 21 requirements that will take an average participant at least 5 hours to complete. Thankfully Granger is engaging and high energy and does a great job conveying the information. He is clearly a practitioner who can also teach which adds value to the materials
