What do you love about Becker?

"Becker takes something that is challenging (CPA exam) and makes it very doable with roadmap and the materials needed. And then once you're a CPA, it's a familiar and trusted brand that you can rely on for CPE."

What would you tell an accounting student today?

"Take advantage of the education you are receiving now. You will never again get this amount of time in a room with someone whose job it is to teach you! You can learn it now with the help of someone or you can teach it to yourself later. Choose now!"
