Does this program have any accreditation or is it licensed by some authority?

If you are asking about CPE check with your state
accounting board. You more than likely have to send them a copy of the module outline. I personally checked with AIPB and ACAT and was told to check with the Minnesota Board of Accountancy. The problem is the board only meets
once a month or every two months. the first time I turned it in they lost it. Have not heard anything since.

Thank you for the reply, Paul.

I should have clarified my question a little better. What I meant was, colleges/universities have accreditation by an educational authority for their degree programs. Is this program accredited, meaning, is the education I learn from this program accepted by educational accreditation authorities?

I have seen what key points they teach in the program, but does what they teach cover what one needs to know to go into a business and be able to do their books? This sounds like it is more of a hands-on program.

It would be nice if UAC could put a sample module on their site so I could get a better feel for the program (how it is taught, the quality of what is being taught, etc.) before I invest the money doing it.

Also, I know they have a money-back guarantee, but I would rather be sure of what I am getting into before I invest the money and resources.

For a sample of the Professional Bookkeeper program

As for the Professional Bookkeeper program, it is not currently accredited such that you can use it to transfer credits to a university or college but it is often times used for CPE's.

You are correct in understanding that it is hands-on such that trains you to be proficient in accounting procedures with an emphasis in small-to-mid size accounting.
