Mission

History

The Academy was founded and its curriculum developed by a seasoned Certified Public Accountant experienced in both public and private accounting as an auditor, controller, consultant, and chief financial officer.  He decided to start a trade school when he realized that students were graduating from college with business degrees who had never seen a real set of books and had no idea how to record and post disbursements, deposits and invoices, prepare journal entries,  prepare financials, etc..  Their university curriculum had been entirely oriented to large corporations with a heavily emphasis on accounting and finance theory and analysis. The real-life needs of small business were basically ignored.

Results
