What makes GAAP Dynamics different than the competition?
Performing a market analysis comparing our product with popular competitors like Becker and Surgent is truly an eye opening experience! At first glance, our competitors offer a LOT more courses than we do. Some of them proudly proclaim they have 500+ courses available in their library. However, when you start to look at the types of courses, you’ll quickly realize that these subscriptions are filled with a lot of non-technical coursework. In almost all our competitors’ libraries, we saw that the topics covering technical accounting made up less than 20% of their library! In addition, none of our competitors’ base subscriptions include webinars! Our subscription includes not only proper eLearning, but also webinars and microlearning. Variety is the spice of life!
Most importantly we believe our eLearning is of a much higher quality compared to our competitors. A bit too often, we found that their eLearning was not really our definition of eLearning at all, but rather voice-over PowerPoint slides, recorded webinars, or the worst, downloadable PDFs. Talk about BORING! Without engagement, how does learning occur?
If you’re looking for CPE-eligible courses that are…
- Engaging, interactive, and application-based, with plenty of examples to illustrate key points,
- Designed, developed, and programmed in-house, ensuring technical accuracy, consistency of message, and exceptional instructional design,
- Curated with a focus on quality over quantity, and
- Focused on technical training related to “for-profit” entities
…then you can look no further than GAAP Dynamics! None of our competitors can offer this same combination of benefits. We’d be happy to share a report of our side-by-side comparison with competitors. Just send us a note! Or try out a free course today and see the difference for yourself!

Absolutely. We know when you’re training a team, budget is top of mind, and we are here to help. If you’re looking to grant your team or 10 or more access to one of our CPE subscription packages, contact us today to learn about our volume discounts.
