Federal Audit Training Reviews & Testimonials

This was a great course!

I am very thankful for this opportunity. The class was conducted one-on-one, and I truly appreciate both my instructor and the Graduate School for making this possible. The most valuable aspect of the training was its personalized focus—it was tailored specifically to my current situation, which made it highly relevant and immediately applicable. In the past, I’ve taken training from the Graduate School and other providers, but the material often catered to large agencies like the Department of Defense. This time, however, the instruction was centered on my needs, which made a significant difference.

Instructor was very knowledgeable!

Well organized tests and thought-out exercises.

I have had this instructor before and have always enjoyed any class he teaches. This one was no exception and was an excellent course.

I have had the instructor before and was excited to see he was teaching this course. Mark is thoughtful and thorough.

Instructor was very knowledgeable and knew how to make the learning easily understandable. Made the class very interactive and participative, a very appreciative approach.

The content/subject matter was interesting and the material was helpful in supporting the course objective. The exercises were helpful in facilitating class participation. I have "take aways" that I plan to apply not only in my professional interactions but also my personal interactions. Instructor was knowledgeable, well-prepared and had appropriate examples to supplement the course. She encouraged participation and was an active listener.

Wonderful class that is extremely useful for any grade level. The knowledge gained will help me for years to come.

Direct and straight to the point. Helpful insight that I have not thought about before.

Leaving with ways to express myself in the workplace, actively listen, and have empathy for others! The instructor was clear spoken, knew the information, and provided great past experiences as examples.

Great teacher! Mr. Grover is extremely knowledgeable, highly practical, engaging, and provided me with insight and strategies that I could immediately apply in my day-to-day responsibilities.

I look forward to taking future classes with him!

Great - Instructor gave GAO website to look up reports will use on job.

My overall experience was good. The instructor was very knowledgeable, engaging, had good examples from YouTube to help with the subject, and used breakout sessions appropriately.

My overall experience was fantastic, largely because of the instructor. She was fun, personable, and brought an incredible energy to the course that made learning both enjoyable and effective. The structure, support, and engaging content all came together to create a truly rewarding experience. I’d gladly take another class with her!

I enjoyed Kim! She was the perfect amount of chill and professionalism. She was very enthusiastic about the course and mentioned she was covering for someone, but you wouldn't be able to tell. She gave a good amount of breaks too and did not require our cameras to be outside of when we were speaking - which I really appreciated. There is no point on being on camera for the entire duration of the course. Kim is clearly very knowledgeable and empathic to her class.

I absolutely enjoyed the instructor. She was timely, engaging, and enthusiastic. The instructor gave the participants opportunity to speak freely and make adjustments in how we were going to present results. She was extremely flexible.

My overall experience was great. I enjoyed the class with its interactive sessions.

This was a good class for beginners. Instructor was very good and kept the class engaged.

Instructor explained topics well, kept a good pace for the course, and was knowledgeable on the subject matter.

Instructor was great, answered questions well and kept us engaged.

Ms. Carroll walked the class through various types of charts. I find them to be useful, and I feel our audit team would utilize some of the data analysis charts. Very good class and I will definitely use all the tools they provided.

This course was excellent. I come from an audit background, but I don't currently perform audits. However, the internal control environment is very relevant to my everyday work and current role. Eulica Kimber was an engaging and knowledgeable instructor. I would recommend her for future courses as she displayed a real interest in the content, provided practical real examples, and made the learning very practical. She challenged us to take our learning to the next level once we return back to work. The time was well spent and I could have easily attended for another day.

Our instructor was very thorough and engaging. She was able to provide many real world examples, making it easy to understand the course material. The class content was relevant and helpful in driving home the importance of internal controls.

Extremely informative and great information and guidance to take with me back to my agency.

I really enjoyed this class, was not boring at all.

A great training with a good mix of lectures and exercises.
