Pros

access to their ecducational tools help clients with taxes work with very knowledgable tax professionals

Cons

I am not sure I would do it again given the knowledge I have know. I paid nearly $200 for the class. (88 hours of class time) I also had to pay $60 for the Tax ID. I worked about 60 hours. So if you do the math I personally did not make a lot per hour. (less then minimum wage) If you take cost versus benefit I am not sure I would reccommend this job to anyone unless your office has you work more then 8 hours a week for one month.
