Surgent Accounting & Financial Education has released Surging Auditors, another entry in its series of products focused on gamified, online education courses.
Like "Max the Tax," the
Surging Auditors presents users with real-world situations in order to quiz their knowledge of inventory procedures and ability to use their professional skepticism to best audit companies. Points are scored to users by asking correct questions, identifying errors, and utilizing follow-up procedures for each situation they're given.
The four stages of a Surging Auditors course present users with the following tasks: Investigate and review information about their virtual client; interview the virtual client to validate claims and uncover pertinent information; use the information gathered to complete a given task before submitting their completed work for evaluation; and take a final exam to earn CPE credit.
“Whether you’re studying for a certification exam or earning CPE or CE credits, Surgent offers adaptive and high-impact learning solutions to help professionals increase their knowledge in the most effective and efficient way possible,” said Surgent executive vice president Liz Kolar in a statement. “We’re excited to add ‘Surging Auditors’ to ‘Surgent Interactive,’ expanding our offering of courses that truly engage our customers so they can learn smarter while also having fun.“
A one-credit Surging Auditors course costs $29. Users have one year from their date of purchase to take the course and earn their CE credit. A subscription model will also be available as more courses are gradually added to Surgent Interactive.
More information on the course and Surgent Interactive is available at Surgent's
