Kaplan CPA Review Solves Information Retention Issues in Traditional Classrooms with Online, Real-Time Course

LA CROSSE, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Kaplan CPA Review (www.kaplanCPAreview.com) is helping candidates sitting for the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) Exam retain information more readily with a real-time, interactive, Web-based course designed to allow for student/instructor interaction through a built-in instant messaging feature. The course takes traditional lectures to the next level by providing students with the ability to review classes via streaming archives.


According to Kaplan CPA Review President Dr. Andrew Temte, the dynamic schedules of todays CPA candidates demand a review course that provides flexibility without compromising the quality of the educational experience. As the length of a course increases, students ability to retain information declines dramatically, Temte said. By offering real-time courses, as well as archived versions, we give students the benefits of a live classroom with the ability to go back and pick up on information they may have missed.


Kaplans next Online Review Course begins in March 2008. Each quarter, Kaplan conducts four 7-9 week review courses – one for each section of the CPA Exam. Individual sections are priced at $649 and candidates qualify for discounts when multiple sections are purchased. CPA Exam candidates can sign up for the Online Review Course by calling 1-800-CPA-2DAY or visiting kaplanCPAreview.com.


The CPA Exam is delivered in a computerized format at over 300 Thomson Prometric® test centers across the United States. There are four sections to the exam, which may be taken in any order. Candidates can take one, two, three or all four sections within a single testing window, and they have a rolling 18-month timeframe to pass all four exam sections.
