"I took three CCH courses from learning.net!" said Ellen McMillan, a CPA working in Portland, Oregon. "I needed to earn my continuing education credits quickly for my re-certification and learning.net had the answer."
Ellen, like many professionals using learning.net was impressed with the ease of registering and taking courses on-line. "The course was easy to get into and use. It was great that I could print a course for reading after work and then come back to it at my convenience to take the exam."
Each on-line course is interactive and provides an end-of-course exam to test knowledge. Ellen asserts, "One of the things I liked best about the learning.net course is that the test material was relevant. The material was well reviewed and refreshed my knowledge of the subject matter."
The ease of taking courses and the flexibility of on-line learning provide Ellen and other professionals with the opportunity to complete continuing education credits at their own convenience.

Pete Ventura, an accountant from New Hampshire, successfully completed a CCH course through learning.net. "It has been awhile since I took the CPA exam, so the learning.net course was a good refresher. I was able to earn the CPE credits that I needed while learning material that I had forgotten over the years."
"I was also impressed with the convenience of taking the CCH course on-line," Mr. Ventura discussed. Since all of the learning.net courses are accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week, it is easy to complete needed educational credits. Courses can be completed at any time, and it is not necessary to finish in one session. This flexibility is a real plus for busy professionals who need to fit educational units into their hectic schedules.
The technical services department was there when Pete needed it. After having a question with logging in to the course, Pete contacted the learning.net technical department. "They responded very quickly, within a few hours, and got me back on track. I was able to complete the course straight away, quickly and easily."

Real Estate
Sharon Groves of Escondido, California says, "The real estate courses that I took with learning.net were wonderful! I was so jazzed that I could take classes on-line that satisfied my real estate CPE requirement."
Sharon works at Coldwell Banker as a real estate agent. She, like most of her colleagues, finds it difficult to find the time to fit CPE into her busy schedule.
"Unfortunately, I tend to procrastinate fulfilling my real estate CPE requirement," laments Sharon. "But then I found learning.net! It was so easy to complete a course in between real estate transactions. I'm telling all of my colleagues about it. One of my friends was so jealous that she was taking a correspondence course with a fat book for her continuing education credits. I got to finish my CPE on-line. No fat books required."
Real estate agents can benefit by taking courses on-line with learning.net. With convenient bundled packages, agents can complete all CPE requirements with only one convenient purchase. Sharon Groves is just one more satisfied agent with learning.net.

Helen A. Pietrzak of Century 21 Beachside in Rancho Cucamonga, CA considers Learning.net a huge win for efficiency and convenience! Prior to using Learning.net, Helen would schedule time away from the office to attend continuing education seminars. Once she added together the time required to get ready, the course length and the travel time, Helen would find herself losing valuable days away from her core business of selling real estate.
By utilizing Learning.net, Helen has to worry about one less appointment. She is able to complete her Department of Real Estate requirements in the cozy, informal atmosphere of her own home and it was based on her unique time schedule. Even if she doesn't have time to complete a whole course, she knows she can pick up where she left off at a later date. According to Helen, she now has more time during the day to follow up on leads and close those deals.
Helen declares, "I personally think that being able to complete my DRE requirements on line is the greatest time saver. I can take a course at my convenience, late at night or early in the morning, or on a weekend and still earn the credits. I will recommend this process to all my associates as a terrific way to continue our education requirements."
