My name is Joy Marie Coleman, I am currently enrolled within the class Administrative Assistant & Professional Bookkeeping with QuickBooks via Auburn. Just to state a few factors that I enjoy about this school and classes,
First to start off with the teachers, advisors are wonderful, very organized and extremely on point. They are willing to go above and beyond what it takes to help a student out. Whether it being an emergency or just a quick question there's no hesitation to lend a hand.

I really like the online format of this course, studying at my own pace and not having any home assignments to write. As a busy mom of two small children I really appreciate being able to use the little time I have to do actual studying and learning.
