<p>The ExP courses were excellent. The key areas were summarised perfectly and the exam approach techniques presented during the practice stage were exactly what I needed. I watched the majority of the course on my iPhone during my commute to work on the train and the technology was spot on and never let me down. I&rsquo;d highly recommend the ExP courses. 5 stars as far as I&rsquo;m concerned! <em>- Sam H</em></p>
<p>This was the first time I&rsquo;d used online courses following a friend&rsquo;s recommendation about ExP and I loved it. Passed first time : ) The whole experience was very smooth from the registration through to the study and the mock exam. No complaints at all and loved the approach of the course. Thank you ExP : ) <em>- Fiona P</em></p>
<p>Thanks to ExP, my dream of becoming a Chartered Accountant has been fulfilled. I&rsquo;m now fully qualified and the ExP group made it easy with their lectures, notes and tips. I&rsquo;m eternally indebted to the ExP team. They made complex subjects understandable and really helped me pass my exams. It was ExP&rsquo;s support and guidance that enabled me to succeed in the exams. <em>- Yaw O</em></p>
