What's the difference between a course and a learning plan?

A course is a standalone training offered as a live instructor-led webinar or as an eLearning. A Learning Plan is a series of courses, often arranged sequentially to teach you the essentials for products you own.

What's the difference between an eLearning and live instructor-led webinar?

An eLearning is an interactive session without a live presenter, and a live instructor-led webinar is a remote session conducted by a live presenter.

Is there a fee for courses?

Tax & Accounting Professionals Courses are available as part of Implementation, Refinement and/or Optimization packages that you can purchase from your Sales Representative. There are a limited number of free courses you can access without purchasing a package.

Will I be sent reminders about my course registrations?

Yes. The Learning Center periodically sends reminder emails about upcoming webinars you've registered for, including 2 days prior and 3 hours prior to the scheduled webinar.
