What are our students saying?

As a first time student wanting to launch a new career in finance and bookkeeping, I have found the My CPE course material to be highly engaging, thought-provoking and carefully constructed. Understanding the importance of compliance and accountability has been at the forefront for my learning which is invaluable in a complex and evolving industry. The support and targeted additional training has enabled me to challenge my thought processes and allowed me to adapt my learning style in a nurturing environment, allowing the opportunity to always ask ‘but why?’ From an introductory aspect, the course has been explanatory, thorough and easy to understand.

My experience has been very positive, my trainer has been exceptional and I would absolutely recommend My CPE to anyone wanting to join this challenging industry.

Bhree Kemp, Student, QLD

I have been actively involved in the financial sector as a bookkeeper and business owner for over twenty (20) years and I wanted to improve my skills and at the same time, provide value-added service to my clients so I undertook the MY CPE courses in Manage Separation or Termination and Manage Payroll.

I was really impressed with the course content and found both courses highly relevant. I strongly recommend the CPE Courses for the professionalism and the support provided to me throughout my training journey. I encourage all professional Bookkeepers to consider updating your knowledge and skills by engaging with My CPE. The trainers were very supportive and I always felt I could contact them with any questions along the way.

Suzanne Gerrish, PBK, Mid North Coast, NSW

I would like to thank My CPE for helping me do my training in Payroll & HR.

I commenced the Diploma on Payroll Services under another organisation that I felt was below par. Per say I did not finish it.

My CPE are fantastic. The course is easy to follow and if you get stuck the trainers are there for you. The details given are extensive and the extra’s to help you research are number 1.

I would fully recommend My CPE for anything to do with Payroll and HR. I look forward to the next lot of training with them in the future.

Kathy-maree Bartle (JP), Books Alive Bookkeeping, Central Coast, NSW

I was looking to refresh my skills in Payroll and to get my Diploma in Payroll. From the moment of enrolling my assessor and trainer have been extremely helpful, having a weekly meetup has kept me on track with my units and assessments. The professionalism, support and passion for encouraging those learning has been a stand out quality of My CPE. I now have full confidence in the knowledge and compliance in Payroll and highly recommend the team at My CPE.

Carleen Hill, ABN Bookkeeping, WA

I have recently undertaken two courses with My CPE that were required by the TPB as part of my application to register as a BAS Agent. The My CPE trainer’s support was brilliant, always quick and clear in the response to my queries which made the process much easier than I had anticipated, Thank you.

Bradley Pitt, First Class Accounts - Bull Creek, WA.
