A one-stop learning resource for tax and accounting

Our Tax & Accounting business has launched the first-ever fully integrated online offering for tax and accounting practitioners designed to combine research, training, and certification onto our new our Checkpoint Learning platform.

Checkpoint Learning has revolutionized the user experience, bringing learning workflow onto one platform, allowing tax and accounting professionals—in one application—to receive updated legislative news, research a topic, complete related testing and instantly determine compliance with Continuing Professional Education (CPE) licensing requirements.

The courses and products now available through Checkpoint Learning include some of the industry’s best-known, well-respected products:

Our one-of-a-kind offering has simplified the practitioner’s method of completing CPE requirements, which is critical in the ever-changing world of tax laws, auditing standards and compliance demands. Checkpoint Learning courses link the learner to the appropriate research and guidance in Checkpoint, and Checkpoint links the research and guidance to related online learning.

Our Tax & Accounting business with its unparalleled investment in technology and intellectual property, meets the everyday needs of the tax and accounting professional by centralizing learning, compliance requirements, courseware, guidance, and record-keeping, onto a single online platform.

Checkpoint Learning was created and is staffed by industry professionals who understand the pain points of our customers. For the first time, Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) will have their entire CPE history available for review, including courses offered by internal and external sponsors, in one place.

Other unique features include

  • automatic e-mail alerts to practitioners when they need to meet detailed CPE requirements with applicable State Boards
  • identifying employees who need to meet firm-driven learning requirements
  • assigning employee training plans; and handling all aspects of running in-house training, including scheduling, printing CPE certificates of completion, and
  • compiling course evaluations.
