CourseCareers Arvostelua 

This is my honest and unbiased review of the CourseCareers Accounting course.

They state that the entire Accounting course will take 1-4 months to complete. I finished the entire program in 1 week. The Accounting course is about 10 hours worth of video in total. It should not take you long to complete the program if you're diligent.

The course material is very basic information. Their pitch is that this information is enough to get you an entry-level position. Maybe. The instructor clearly states that they remove all the "fluff" and give you what you need. To be quite honest, the information provided in the course can all be had for absolutely FREE on YouTube and other sources. The information is lackluster at best. You certainly don't need to spend $499 for the privilege.

For example, in the Accounting Systems module, I expected to learn how to use accounting software, like Quickbooks Online. The instructor just briefly goes over the different accounting software platforms that are out there. You will not learn how to use them in this course. Total waste of time. You can learn how to use Quickbooks Online for FREE if you're interested in Bookkeeping, for example. This is a much more valuable skill than anything you will learn in CourseCareers.

After you finish the core course there is a section on Careers. This is another complete waste of time section. For example, if you know anything remotely about how to use a computer you're good to go. The LinkedIn module is completely useless, as is the resume module. If you don't know how to create a LinkedIn profile, there are hundreds of YouTube videos on how to do it. Yep, all completely FREE. Need help with your resume, you guessed it, you can create a great Accounting resume for FREE.

People think if they purchase something it is something of value. This isn't always the case. There is absolutely no value here for what you are spending. Do a little research and learn this stuff for FREE. It's not rocket science. For example, you can learn Bookkeeping for FREE from various sources. The Bookkeeping module in the course is a complete waste of time, as are the other career paths for that matter. I learned 10X the Bookkeeping skills I need to get a job, yes, again I learned for FREE.

Let's talk about the Final Exam. This is where they get you. You only have a 14-day window to request a refund if you are dissatisfied with the course. Like I said, I completed the entire course in 1 week and took the Final Exam. Lo and behold, I failed the first attempt at the Final. They give you two FREE chances to pass the Final Exam. After that, if you do not pass or are dissatisfied with your score, you will need to hand over $50 per attempt. It took them 2+ days to grade my first attempt at the Final Exam. Why is this important? It eats into your 14-day refund window, provided you complete the program quickly. I took the Final Exam again and it took them another 2+ days to return my results. I passed, but the grade was not satisfactory to me. By this time I had exceeded the 14-day window by 2 days. Per their policy, you are not eligible for a refund at that point.

If you pass the Final Exam you are granted access to the Graduate portal. This is where you can create a profile and upload your resume. Supposedly, employers can access the portal and view your profile and resume. Keep in mind, that they will also have access to your Final Exam score, your verbal answers to the questions, and answers to the multiple-choice questions. So if you failed a lot of the verbal questions or your score is low, it may not be worth your while to create a profile. This is completely up to the student. Before you take the Final Exam, they clearly state that you should score high on the exam. I'm not sure what your chances are of landing an actual job through CourseCareers if you don't.

So that's the entire program in a nutshell. Do yourself a favor and pass on CourseCareers. I understand they have a lot of great reviews, but these reviews are mostly of their programs other than Accounting. I cannot speak to their other programs. That was one of the main reasons I chose to give it a shot. But in the end, all the information you will gain from this program can be learned for absolutely FREE. There is nothing of substance here.

Perhaps the certification you get is worth it for some students, and maybe even some get a job through the platform. It would be interesting to know what their success rate is among their students.

I give CourseCareers an overall rating of 1 star. If you decide to give CourseCareers a shot, good luck.

I purchased the course but haven't started yet, I will be starting right away, but I did a workshop with Abdulahi Adam a coach from course careers he was very informative knew the course through and through answered every question and there were quite a few from everyone. He was patient and understood everyone was new to the course. I enjoyed the workshop he is Highly recommended for coaching.

I just started watching the course training videos and I’m excited to hear all the information I’m receiving to be a sales rep starting off.Knowing that I have the ability to make 6 figures within the first year just by learning, listening, and speaking well excites me me tremendously.

Course Careers has been an incredible resource for breaking into the tech industry. The lessons are clear, well-structured, and practical, making complex concepts easy to understand. The platform offers great support, and the materials are up-to-date with industry standards. I especially appreciated the real-world examples that helped me grasp the content more deeply. If you're serious about starting a career in IT, Course Careers is definitely worth considering. Highly recommended!

So far very complete, relevant and understandable information. I can see how this could be added to my previous sales experience and make me a great asset to a company and a prospect!

CourseCareers has helped me get into a field I have always been intimidated by. Terrell is a great instructor.

IT course.

The recordings and use cases are TWO years old. The instructor literally says things that are contradicted in their current TOS because again, he said them two years ago and the TOS is more recent.

Company states they are "partnering" with industry yet doesn't list a single partner. This company has an in house "test proctor" to make it look legit, and in MY case the thing dropped connection with me no less than 23 times while I was trying to test out.

This company has a Discord page and relies on "student teachers" to offer coaching. Their own TOS states not to DM an instructor, REALLY? for 450 bucks and no instructor feedback? (I have screen shots of their current TOS in case they change them, sneakily)

$450-ish for a course that can be found for free on you tube. This was MY fault of course for TRUSTING someone who recommended this course but clearly she was an affiliate and got a cut of the fees.

The resume help is simplistic at best, and this company tells you to basically spam linkedin to make it look like you have connections all over IT.

Really, no better than a $19 Udemy course or doing your own searches on You tube for free.

Really I blame myself for falling for yet another IT bait and switch.

Edit: I raised the rating to three. I feel that I may be a bit too harsh because of the fact I feel like I got taken for a ride by yet another online training company. So three of five.

Edit, changed it back to two because of the way they talk to me in emails.

YOUR experience may vary. Good luck.

I am absolutely loving this course! I’ve finished all the modules now and I’m revising for the final exam. It’s so well taught and very thorough. The videos are just the right length and very clear. Definitely recommend it if you want to get into tech sales.

The course was amazing I completed the course in 2 weeks and now preparing for final exam.... I can wait to officially be on the other side of Sales Tech !!! Wonderful experience

I am proud to take this course. It's useful

I cannot begin to express how thankful I am towards the Course Careers team! Tim is such a great educator. The smooth delivery of the curriculum is quite noteworthy. I look forward in completing the course soon!

It is a really helpful experience. There are so many things I did not know that I learned through the platform. Just make sure you do the projects, make those connections and apply.

great resource for anyone seeking to step into the information, communication and technology world!

very interesting and easy to cope with course, I watch all the videos twice in order to get a better understanding and it really helped a lot

It was a nice intro for how to became a software engineer I think will join soon soon, looks legitimate.

So far i got a good experience here and iwant to continue to succeed here

So far the class is amazing, I could take my time and really learn the material. I'm learning a lot and I could not wait to finish my course and get into tech.
