The information given was stuff that was seen on an everyday basis but truly went unnoticed, it is now something that will be paid attention to much more closely.

The course was interesting and thoughtful. The quizzes could be a little more difficult and had more questions to ensure that the module is properly revised.

The course appears to be at a very basic pace and not the best use of my time. In addition, the graphic elements used do not aid in delivering the content at all. It just doesn't appear to be high quality.

There's not really that much forensic accounting in this course, as instead, it focuses more heavily on fraud. I think this course is a good introduction to fraud prevention, though I do wish some concepts got a deeper dive into them.

My only objection is that the title of the course is "Forensic Accounting: Fraud Investigations!". The course is not about forensic accounting, or fraud investigations. It is about basic (although useful) fraud concepts, prevention and detection. I took the course because I thought it was oriented toward actual forensic accounting concepts. Otherwise a good fundamentals course.
