SOLUTION:
Wise Accounting is a boutique tax, accounting and business advisory specialist firm in Western Australia. Its digital innovation saw it move to the cloud early and reap the benefits of advanced technology.
Following the restriction of in-person learning options during the pandemic, the award-winning firm realised it needed access to technical updates and industry insights in an easy to access platform which would support the interests of each of its team members.
Wise Accounting had purposefully elected to downsize its firm a couple of years earlier for strategic reasons. This enabled its founder, Tyler Wise, to follow his passion for cybersecurity and launch Cyberwise. Following heavy demand for his tax and accounting expertise, his Wise Accounting team expanded its clientele again – meaning staying on top of legislative change, technical updates and industry insights became a priority once more.
Good value guaranteed
As a long term and very satisfied Wolters Kluwer CCH iFirm Practice Management suite user, it had previously subscribed to the CCH Learning webinar platform. Investigating the available options for online learning tailored for the accounting industry led to the realisation there had been an increase in learning operators in the space. Still, with CCH Learning, “it knew what it was getting, and it’s good value”.
Once again, it turned to CCH Learning for its team’s professional learning and development needs – ensuring the cost-effective and high-quality professional and personal development solutions added value and CPD points to team members.
Professional presentation benchmark
For Tyler, it is the standard of the presenters that further differentiates the CCH Learning webinar platform. He believes there is a considered selection of industry professionals presenting on key topics across tax, accounting, finance, and legal together, all focusing on ‘deep learning’.
“Presenters across all topics are subject matter experts, and you can see how deep their industry knowledge is whenever there are any follow up questions. What this gives the audience is 100 per cent confidence that the engaging presenter in front of you does have the level of industry insights we are all aiming to develop.”
Enabling continuous development
Wise Accounting also benefits from the broad knowledge base on offer with the CCH Learning webinar platform. Team members can access technical updates and topics of interest each month, familiarising themselves with the calendar of presenters and topics at the beginning of each month.
