The course is a great summary of the code in North Carolina regarding professional ethics for Certified Public Accountants. The summary of the technical information as well as the examples provides a platform for creative and meaningful learning.

Appreciated this ethics course for NC. I especially liked the scenarios within the course and the reasoning behind any violations or decisions made. It allowed the principles to be applied in practical ways.

It got the job done. The material is dry. But, the purpose is to make sure that we know the rules, and it did that.

The course was refreshing, and the case studies and review questions helped drive home the message.

Really boring and dry but it gets the jobs done. It is good to reread these rules regularly.

Lack of real world examples or other information that would make the training engaging.

I think this could have used a few more examples, vs mostly statute and rules.

Hi, thank you for this course. I have a question - If I took this course last year to count towards my CPE requirements for 2018, can I retake the course to count towards 2019 CPE requirements?

Thanks!

Oyinade, thank you for your question. You can 'reset' courses you have taken on Illumeo and take them again, earning new CPE, and your prior course CPE will remain as well. Clearly, the second take would need to be for credit in a separate reporting period, but it looks like you get that already. Also, for absence of any doubt, you may want to check with your state's CPA organization to make sure that it's okay to re-take courses you have taken prior and have it count for CPE according to their rules.
