Universal Accounting Center’s Video Tour

A Wealth of Student Testimonials

Last summer, Universal Accounting Center updated their website and added a video tour to better introduce visitors to the UAC mission and to key Universal players. In our efforts to expose you to more resources found on UAC’s website, we’d like to share a portion of that tour with you today.

At the beginning of the tour you’ll find Allen Bostrom, President and CEO of Universal Accounting Center. Allen introduces the video tour, explaining what Universal has to offer accountants, tax preparers, and small business owners. Following Allen, Roger Knecht discusses the role UAC plays in helping countless graduates start and build their own accounting and tax service. Today we’d like to introduce you to Miriam Coons, Director of Human Resources, who talks about the wealth of student testimonials regarding Universal’s proven training programs.

UAC has been training accountants and business owners in the proper method of small business accounting since its doors first opened in 1979. That gives us over 27 years experience teaching professionals like you small business accounting, tax preparation, and marketing. With over 13,000 graduates since 1980, we have been able to gather countless testimonials from our students.

A Wide Variety of Ringing Endorsements

The great thing about our testimonials is that they come from a variety of sources. Many are looking to either open their own accounting practice or grow their current business by increasing clientele. Others are looking for new and improved job opportunities and promotions. While others still are interested in sharing a third-party review, either as a current or potential employer or a financial professional who has examined our training materials. Here’s what just a few of those individuals have to say.

New Job Opportunities
UAC’s training enables individuals with extensive, little or no accounting and tax background to advance their careers, find better jobs or earn promotions in their current line of work. Here’s what just a few of these graduates have to say:

I was particularly impressed with your ability to make accounting concepts simple. I am surprised at how much I was able to learn from you in just four weeks. - S. Patrick

Without your training program I would never have considered this position, I now have the confidence and the skills to be an effective member of the corporate level management group. - Ralph Coleman Read the rest of the testimonial

I am now working for a very prominent land developer. I manage several multi million dollar accounts and companies and am responsible for all of the financial statements and reporting of each account and company. - Jodi Eldridge

Business Opportunities
Many enroll in our programs because they’re interested in running their own accounting and tax practices. These individuals find that our exhaustive training prepares them for every situation they will encounter with their clients. They also appreciate the opportunity to pace their progress, either finishing the course in a matter of months, or within just 60 hours. Here are what a few of these graduates have to say:

I am a single parent who was registered at the community college to complete my accounting\bookkeeping course. This would have taken 2 years to complete. Having completed the course at Universal Accounting, I have cancelled my registration at the college. I now feel able to offer accounting services and will also be able to run this out of my home. - Lori Moore

Since I graduated from college, it has always been my dream to have my own accounting business which I could operate from MY own home. I know that I now have the information and tools to do this because of Universal Accounting Center. - K. K. Ellers

Even though I have worked for small companies and their books for quite a few years, I learned more in the first 2 weeks than in my years of doing books. This class has given me the confidence to go and start my own business with confidence. Thank you for an enjoyable experience. - Julie M. Hemsley

Employers and Other Satisfied Reviewers
We are also lucky to have employers and other professionals send us glowing testimonials regarding UAC’s programs. Here’s a small sampling:

I purchased the course as a review for myself, but also as a training tool for my two employees. My employees have a working knowledge in their areas of expertise (payroll and accounts payable), but little or no book knowledge of the complete accounting process…we are all impressed with the ease with which we are picking up and retaining the information. - Wendy Sines

I believe that it’s courses will be a highly worthwhile addition to the range of programs now offered by post-secondary educational institutions within the state.—W. Michael Seganish Read the rest of the testimonial

I have had the opportunity of not only interviewing, but in many cases placing graduates of the UAC’s training program. I have found that many of the graduates are place-able. I truly look forward to each graduating class and the opportunities that come from working with these candidates. - Sue Ellen Chaney
