Its only .5 credit and to listen to it it took 45 minutes. to me it should only take 30 minutes to listen to it

I love the audio part

After 30 years in the industry, I understand and respect the importance of AML. However, I have annual Continuing Education requirements regarding AML on so many levels at this point, that repetition is unavoidable, and the abundance of information becomes almost confusing at times.

I read much faster so appreciated being able to stop the reading and then move the progress bar. I took notes on all the acronyms but didn't really need to know them.

Audio is nice, but would be better if I could increase speed of speaker. Also, more bullets and fewer paragraphs would be nice.

Due to the amount of acronyms in use, a glossary and/or clickable side reference would be helpful

I would like to be able to adjust the speed of the read-it-to-me audio. Thank you.

Your courses take twice as long as the amount of credit received since these courses are very through.

i do not see how this course material is relevant for my role as an SA in an institutional equities setting. I have no client-facing interaction. Anything materials written by tax-prep professional is not relevant to my work.

your courses take double the time you indicate as credit hours.

I like the read out loud feature the best.

It looks like the RMD ages are NOT correct. It only states age 73 but the most recent RMD age for people born in 1960 or later, the RMD age is 75 now.

The material was excellent. The exams have been way too easy so far.

A lot of information but some of it not necessary. Need to be more parsimonious with information.

This was more detailed than any other course i have taken.. i learned alot!

I find the extreme use of acronyms maddening. I don't believe everything should be rendered into an acronym, especially in an educational setting. Solution: rather than listing the acronym once in parenthesis, I would suggest sprinkling it throughout the content to better associate the full name of the institution, act of congress, or other with the acronym. This is not an essay or newspaper article. It is educational material with an exam. Use the full words more often and list the acronym in parenthesis often to build more education association between the two.

I would love to have had a speed up option on the voice reader...

Background and history for something like AML isn't all that helpful... current rules and regulations/best practices are what we need.

Informative course. The format is perfect; the duration of the sections is just right for interest and effort.

the required timer is not efficient and wastes time

This was so long and boring that I found it hard to focus

With the amount of figures, and tax codes, etc, the audio was harder to follow than just reading.

Not sure why I had to learn about the tax treatment when I don't prepare tax returns.

Roth IRA Conversion information was excellent learning opportunity and addressed concerns I have had for quite a while.

Much better than the dry AML course. Even the Ai voice was better. Still no need to read out dashes & slashes, etc.

Course was too dry with all the modalities available for education in 2026 & the Ai voice too monotone. Don't read out the acronyms.

Way too much detail surrounding the various pieces and laws that make up the whole AML structure. The course took probably over an hour. Could have condensed it to 15 minutes

the completion date was 2027, its actually 2026

EFFECTIVE AND INTERESTING CONTENT PRESENTED IN AN EASY TO UNDERSTAND FORMAT.

Like the opportunity to speed up the presentation to keep my interest.

This was an interesting course and I'm glad I took it, but I do not understand the whole reasoning for understanding the tax side of this course.

would have liked a little more depth/detail and practical application

Too much reading. I think the information could be presented more concisely

Audio did not work for half of the course,

Very redundant content. Too many acronyms.

Good course, good content, very manageable.

Great information learned through reading material or allowing audio for listening to be able to apply on the exams

I thought that the content was very germane to nearly all financial professionals.

After I found the "Pause" things went much better!

I am glad to have taken this course, but do not fully understand how it applies to financial advisors.

I wish exams could somehow be read outloud

This was repetitive and too long in various sections.

Good Refresher Course Content

The course was a bit Elementary and could have been in more detail.

Most of this course content was more appropriate for HQ staff. Only a little dealt with the registered rep's or investment advisor's day to day AML responsibilities.

For the credit offered, this course was far too long.

The read it to me audio has some glitches - phrases are repeated at the beginning of every chapter

Course materials were "cushioned" to cover the CE Hours Requirement. Material was redundant, overly wordy, and marginally effective

Several of the test questions were wrong.

I've been taking CE courses for 35 years. This single course is the worst I've taken. It feel like it was composed by AI. Unclear, legal language, run on sentences, strange sentence structure, and more. Also it says one our, but if I used the audio that alone is close to 3 hours long. Worst I've even taken.

The voice of the "reader" could put a person into a coma with the monotone delivery. And the overuse of acronyms is maddening.

Really like the audio support

I prefer more interactive and autoplay and a few more pictures to help me remember the topics.

I know this material well but it was extremely long. This should be reduced significantly.

This particular class kept kicking me out of the website whenever I finished a section. I had to keep logging in.

I'll recommend to my associates at our firm. I've used other course providers the last few years and many of their sites are clunky and not intuitive.. Your site is the best, easy to navigator, clear, and concise.

I would suggest eliminating questions that are a double negative. They are poor in structure.

IRA information a little outdated,

the AI reader did not pronounce words correctly - somewhat annoying - project - W-2, K-1, etc....

great testing modules - So much better than other sites! easier to read and comprehend, info laid out well, not too much at a time, great practice questions and good test questions that were addressed in the information givien.

Fantastic course with quality content that was easy to understand + review + relevant.

This course was a horrible representation of teaching AML concerns for registered individuals. This course was structured to share HOW firms handle the establishment of AML procedures within the firm, including the relevant Law requirements associated with AML over the many years. None of this is within the AML purview of the registered individual. None of this teaches the registered individual about how to conduct front-line AML best actions. None of this teaches about placement, layering and integration. Just a very poorly designed course. AND, listening to this course being read to me is a waste of time. This reading took over 50 minutes to complete....and I received only 0.5 CE credit hours. Way too long.

Questions poorly written for this one module. practice questions don't match the content of the final quiz

The test was ajoke. Many of the questions were asking tax form numbers, that in real life, would simply be looked up.

material was way out of date. this course should be retired.

I could not locate the place to stop the audio to answer the questions

It is handy to have a PDF version of the lesson as well

Course is fine. Need to make your website easier to find courses.

Improve the read aloud function. It's too slow and robotic to be considered helpful

You need to improve finding the right courses. Its very confusing on your web site.

There appears to be a mistake in one of the questions. It asks test-takers to differentiate between a gray list and a watch list. It probably should ask test-takers to differentiate between a gray list and a restricted list since the course material states "the contents of the watch list (also called the grey list)..."

These Ethics CE lessons seemed to be more relevant for tax preparers then for investment professionals.

Presented in a very dry fashion

it exit me some times

I don't understand the value of this course as IAR CE--most of the content has to do with tax law regarding Ponzi schemes, and my firm/industry requires me, as an IAR, to refrain from giving tax advice. I felt most of the content was therefore irrelevant.

Great Course! It was clear and very comprehensive!

Questions about IRS form numbers or legislation names are just memorization and do not demonstrate learning. Questions should test our understanding of the topic, not our ability to memorize an IRS form or a name from a case. This was a terrible course compared to others.

Web site is confusing!

It is difficult to determine which classes will count for my IAR CE. I have taken courses that on the WEBCE site say that they will count, but FINRA didn't give me credit.

it is confusing to determine which courses count for my IAR CEs

I found the "read-it-to-me" feature very beneficial

Ability to be able to speed up the reading to a faster pace

I like the way your material is laid out and easy to read. Great questions to test my knowledge and easy to read. smaller sections so it's not boring. excellent!

the voice is very monotone.

some slides were missing details which the audio was pointing out. too many abbreviations.

Time to complete course was 50% longer than accredited hours.

Good material, but a bit outside my actual knowledge as a Registered Rep, seemed a bit more geared toward CPAs and EAs, but good information.

Kept freezing

It kept missing an hour that I completed.

abbreviated content is appreciated

Web page kept freezing through the content

Being read to is very dry

This course was very informative. Easy to understand. The exam was totally based on information that provided during the course.

Video content would be more entertaining for visual learners

Abbreviated content is always appreciated

While trying to complete this course, the website crashed at least 6-8 times on me. The audio is way to slow, so I had it on mute. I was frequently held up from moving forward in the training. Overall, this was a frustrating and tedious process.

During the test question 11 was listed on the first page of the test (section 1-10) and again on the second page of the test (section 11-15)

There was very little that directly related to my role as a financial advisor. It seemed to be geared more towards corporate.

Course content was very glitchy to navigate

The "case study" examples of the various fraud schemes were helpful in understanding how people fall for these schemes.

Make questions links available to corresponding chapter as was done in the past years.

Too many acronyms and abbreviations

Couple errors but no idea how to list them. One quiz question had 2 correct answers because a Roth IRA is never subject to RMDs even though distributions are required. Glossary has an error on designated beneficiaries with a logic error.

I did not like this format. The usual WebCE format is much better. Having it read everything was not good although I appreciated being able to hit next when I was ready without waiting for it to finish reading. This just felt like a list of slides listing a bunch of laws more than teaching something.

The content was good and relevant. The presentation of the content was awful. Whatever artificial voice that was used needs to be changes ASAP as it is annoying and is distracting to the learning objectives of the course

not presented with any examples that pertain to my industry, would have liked more inclusive language and examples (not a tax preparer)

On the cyber crimes page the audio read the "dashes" between a few things out loud which sounded weird.

Too many stories! Using examples can be helpful but that seemed to be almost the entire content.

Very educational and easy to use the course as wella s understand the content to stay up to date.

The course was equivalent to a "101" level or foundational financial planning curriculum. Some sections of the course were wordy and over-extended. I would be unlikely to repeat such a course for C.E. purposes.

more videos

maybe some video

Ability to speed up audio

The case studies in this course were very effective as a learning tool, however, I was amazed that two (2) of the cases are still pending or do not yet have an outcome!

audio transcription wasn't totally accurate

A couple of sections with simple bullet point items could easily be ready by the student instead of read by the program. Personally I prefer reading than being read to.

When exam questions were to go to the next page, it would not. i wasn't able to answer question 11 on one of the exams due to it not taking me to the next page. I had to save an exit and go back in and I was able to take the last exam on this topic. Also - when hitting continue, it opens up another window - it should just take us to the next page.

I did not care for the read it to me approach. I am glad I was able to turn the volume off and proceed through the course at my own pace.

I think you have a question/answer WRONG, the one that asks about identity verification before account opening. By AML rules, we only need to verify specific client information. Your answer reads: 'The correct answer is "c. fully verifying a prospective client's indentity before opening an account." Credit reports are not required; verification can be performed after account opening, and all records are to be created and maintained.' I hope you can see the contradiction in your answer and explanation. At a minimum, this needs to be worded better.

This course covered a very dry subject. There were no visuals to supplement or enhance learning. The course was no different than simply reading a compliance manual!

all material was helpful and easy to understand

We should be able to click a button to show all bullet points while listening instead of having to wait for the playback and the slow roll of each point.

I find having to remember specific laws, regulations etc. quite cumbersome as opposed to the general gist of the info.

This course did not seem appropriate for RIAs and financial advisors. It seemed appropriate for CPAs and even stated this at times. Note the statements in the last slide of section 2 for examples of this.

Once again, not very concise. Lots of reading and repetition. Too wordy.

Interactive learning is less boring than long sections of reading, buttons you have to select and pictures too.

not a major issue, but I noticed that the AI voice read "-" as "to", rather than "minus" a couple of times

Another rather wordy course. Could be more concise

I was confused as to why this course seemed to be geared towards CFP's and Accountants, versus for Financial Advisors, since I purchased the predesigned package for the Ethics & Professional Responsibilities courses.

I've found most of your courses to be informative and easy to navigate to completion

I've found most of your courses to be very well organized and easy to navigate to completion.

He can say Mad Off a zillion times but it always was and always will be Made Off and it is annoying to listen to it said wrong for an hour and a half.

i found a couple of questions in the practice exams difficult to understand. also the course assessment doesn't allow for a N/A answer which was sometimes the case

This course was extremely wordy. It should not really have to take this long to complete. Having the audio helped me keep it moving. Again, way too wordy.

Complicated information presented well. Practice questions always helpful

This was too much stuff crammed into one module!

The information was interesting and well presented. It was a longer course, but the interesting content made it seem like it went faster. Practice questions very helpful.

Love the audio. But you need to fix the part where he says to pause to do an interactive one and immediately continues talking while you're still trying to figure out how to pause it. Maybe you need a pause button right at that point. Or maybe it automatically pauses and you just click to start it again.

I like the use of multiple examples in the chapters. Madoff is highly recognized, but I have never heard of The Money Doctor or some of the other cases presented. It's good to see new material to help drive home the point of the course.

The information was presented well and the site easy to navigate

went too slow.

The amount of time to take the course if always understated

This course on retirement accounts, 1035 exchanges and beneficiary rules was delivered in a way that was easy to learn and retain! Excellent format, structure and up-to-date!

AML is a dry, difficult subject to maintain one's attention. The course should be updated to offer better visuals and content reminders.

some of the review questions were marked incorrect when they were correct

there were some technical issues which slowed things down, otherwise the information was well presented

The Audio does not work well, it double [plays at the same time and has to be restarted many times. needs to be fixed!!

move video / webinar type content would be nice vs. just reading

This question had multiple correct answers (it seems like C would be the only actual incorrect answer); it could have been worded better: 1. Which of the following advertising claims by a tax preparation firm might indicate that taxpayers should be wary of using its services? a. Refunds, refunds, refunds! b. If you don't get a refund, your tax preparation is free. c. We'll get you every dollar you deserve. d. More refunds than our competitors.

Some of the case study material was too detailed for the points being made.

Eliminate all of the acronyms in the content. Re write entire course -- it is terrible!

This course has way, way too much emphasis on tax filings but is being provided to investment advisers. This should be for CPA CPE not IAR CE. For IARs, it should stick to the schemes and red flags, but cut out the tax filings.

The read-it-to-me option needs to be improved. I would suggest it being read by an actual person since a human would know how to say acronyms and pronounce certain words.

Your AI video in the introduction is gross, low quality, and shows contempt for our profession, not to mention the creatives you would have had to hire to produce a REAL video intro. It would been much better to not have a video than to have to sit through that slop. I will never recommend a company using AI to produce their material to a friend or colleague.

unsure if it was a Google Chrome issue, but the program froze 5 times and i had to re-start where I left off 5 times. A real annoyance.

I saw some practical cases in this course that I hadn't seen in other courses prior to this. Some were older examples from history while others were of recent cases that were high profile. Good content and reminders of our responsibilities as financial professionals.

I liked how the content was paired with case studies to drive home the learning objectives of the material. It was also great to see definitions of the various fraud schemes rather than just a list.

This was a good refresher of all the laws and regulations surrounding the AML program and why it was established. It was also important to see the individual and firm level responsibilities.

This course was way too technical and detailed. It should be presented in a fashion that a person could better recall and relay to clients.

I did not find the questions with the double negatives particularly helpful in measuring my knowledge of the topic.

I did not find the questions with the double negatives particularly helpful in measuring my knowledge of the topic.

AI Audio was choppy and hard to follow.

I have a hard time believing that you are a relyable source for AML and elder abuse and you don't hardy (if at all ) mention crypto.

would have liked the option to not have the course read to me and to read it myself.

Getting to the right content for Ethics IAR requirements was confusing.

I noted on the chapter exams part way through the readings, when you click the button that says the number of questions, like a the top where it says"1-2" or "1-10, 11-20" ect, if you do that on the small ones with only 2 or 3 questions it will hide all the questions after the first one.

The questions are very helpful for learning. More questions in the reading to challenge and have the material sink in.

I struggled a little more with this course compared to the others but it was still easy to follow along

technical issues with submitting final exam for this course required logging in again and refreshing the webpage a second time after submission.

Progress was not always saved correctly.

pre exam questions and the read along audio really helped

Liked following along with the audio bites

Course content is fine. However, there is a lot of duplication.

same as other courses -- on point, on content, ez to use, interactive important, audio great option for us slow learners

It was 3 hours worth of "read it to me" content that I could have read in an hour, but it was a 6-hour course so I had to waste 3 hours clicking through content for no reason other than to satisfy the required time. Probably not worth the cost per hour.

I would like to see a speed change option for the audio recording.

The course is good. However, the monotone delivery was very soporific.

The option to pick "the package" for the IAR CE credits was very helpful. The content in this class as well as the entire bundle was excellent as it relates to what we do in the field and what to watch out for not only for our clients, but ourselves.

There was audio problems where multiple voices were going at the same time.

Tried to see if CPA hours are associated with courses from FINRA. Could not determine or figure out how to add. So I didn't.

The read it to me method is not that effective. One knows how to read and the material is better consumed that way. It is actually annoying to have a monotone voice drone on. If you wish to have this method, why not give the participant the choice in choosing how the material is delivered?

This course was stated as 2.5 hours. It took much more time than 2.5 hours.

The course content/coverage was redundant. Good information but Could have been half the length if information was better consolidated.

Way too basic! This might be good for a high schooler not a seasoned professional.

Please provide an option to change the playback speed.

For a course being on "The Danger of Ponzi Schemes" this way too heavy into tax laws, tax forms, and tax deductions. As a Financial Advisor we do not offer tax advice and this course was irrelevant.

The AI voice got some syntax wrong but it was nice to have it read. I would hire a human to do the recording.

TIME EFFICIENT CE TESTING.

Way too much detail that was not need to get the point across.

Listening to and reviewing all of the course content took much longer than the 30 minutes that was noted at the beginning of the course details.

Last year I was able to print out the Course Material in my Browser or PDF. I am unable to do this in 2026.

Last year I was able to print out the Course Material in my Browser or PDF. I am unable to do this in 2026.

Hello, Would like to let you know the "IAR C.E." Schemes, Scams and Swindles test has duplicated (same) question on #14 and #15 - "What is the primary advantage of using the optional safe harbor method under Revenue Procedure 2009-20 for Ponzi Scheme victims?"

I like he content of this course but i feel like the estimated time to complete is highly understated.

The character size needs to be flexible to fit on the screen.

Really good text and the test questions were appropriate and thoughtful.

Again, the A.I. "reader" cannot convincingly mimic the rhythm of human speech.

The A.I. "reader" is annoyingly clumsy at getting the proper rhythm of speech, which makes it more difficult to pay attention to the narrative.

I did find one grammar error in Section 4.4, Component 3, sentence one. You need to take out the extra "to" in this sentence. "Similarly to the other components of the Care Obligation, broker-dealers must (to) use reasonable diligence...etc.

The entire course content has nothing to do with my current position. I thought it was interesting that one question was about a tax advisor not being qualified to give financial advise. As a financial advisor I am not qualified to give tax advise so this course was irrelevant to me.

times estimates for each section on table of contents (not for sub sections but for main parts) -- this helps the reader understand where and what to focus on when taking notes in prep for applying learnings and taking exam

Using a AI voice is a horrible listening experience.

I really like that you can just take the exam right away. Very helpful and time saving.

too much "fluff" the facts and need to know get drowned out.

I have noticed a handful of mistakes in the content - for example, there was an example about a man taking a distribution for a nonqualified expense at age 55 from an IRA and the example said there would be no penalties. In another course, it stated that ILITs come in two types, funded and unfunded. Funded being the trust owns assets other than the life insurance policy. It stated that ILITs that own assets other than life insurance policies are automatically income taxable to the grantor - this is not true. I would suggest these courses be reviewed for accuracy. I have seen at least 3 of the courses I have taken have similar errors in the content. Thank you.

I would like to know the right answers and the reason to the questions that I missed. I want to learn.

I enjoyed learning the material. I did not like the questions. Some of them were made to trick you where you had to choose the "most right" answer instead of there being just one correct answer. This is the first time I ran into this on WebCE.

The material presented was a real yawner...and I believe could have been shortened.

Very informative course. I enjoyed the learning experience.

Very informative course. I enjoyed the learning experience.

There needs to be a little more inflection in the reading voice, so that people remain alert

finding the required course to take was a bit confusing. once i found and paid for the course, completing it was good.

I did not like the read-it-to-me audio format. Learning by listening at such a fast pace is not conducive to retaining the information presented.

This wass tougher than expected as a couple answers applied but 1 better than the other.

This course on IRS type of scams had a lot of repeat material. It could have been condensed shorter. Also I realized I should have bought a custom course or create my own bundle instead to this package to study topics of my interest.

After taking this course, I realize it was more of a tax course on IRS treatment of losses from Ponzi schemes or theft rather than Ponzi schemes or fraud itself. I realize I should have created a custom bundle of courses rather than the pre-packaged bundle so I could take courses I'm interested in to fulfill my CE.

I would only recommend that duplicate exam questions be eliminated.

There should be an option to toggle on/off auto play of the audio or video. Sometimes, I like to read the content and sometimes I like to let it auto play in the background.

the material covered gave a good update on AML.

This topic's specialized focus with it's detailed Exam questions on which IRS forms are required to be filed and which IRC codes apply to certain situations seems more geared to educate Tax prep CPA's and Bank administrators -- not IAR Financial Advisors. A bit over the top for IAR's. Reel it in ... next time.

There's a false claim in the Bernard Madoff, The Outcome section. The course content states: "At various times during his many years of operations, questions were raised by industry insiders and some journalists about how Madoff’s investment business could be so successful for so long. But no red flags were raised, and Madoff continued to run his fraudulent scheme. Finally, in January 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) launched an investigation." It is CATEGORICALLY FALSE that no red flags were raised and you give the SEC an undeserved pass. The fact is THREE TIMES (2000, 2001, 2005) Harry Markopolous handed a silver platter to the SEC with mathematical proof that Madoff's investment performance was impossible. His most famous submission in 2005 was "The World's Largest Hedge Fund is a Fraud" and included some 29 red flags and a detailed analytical case. You need to remove the "But no red flags were raised...." language and to credit Markopolous as being the catalyst for finally getting the SEC off their backside to launch an investigation.

It is CATEGORICALLY FALSE

test had much more detailed questions than the content.

The virtual voice/Ai voice was awful. dronelike and bad pauses and inflections hard to listen to.

The ability to speed up the audio is beneficial.

A few of your practice test questions had more than one correct answer.

Ponzi scheme emphasis on tax ramifications took up too much of course and were irrelevant because as IAR we are not qualified to give tax advice.

the IRS chart is illegible. No-one can read the small font

Very poorly written compared to your usual course materials. The section on Double Jeopardy was absolutely misleading and resulted in an incorrect answer on the exam. Please rewrite so as not to confuse your audience unnecessarily.

Great content and real-world examples!

This course took me out of my comfort zone- bravo. I knew next to nothing about Ponzi schemes and how they are treated. Helpful.

I switched over from Kaplan and this is MUCH better. Plain language, good selection of SEC exams gone bad, and what the SEC wants to see in firms. Exactly how training should be (not just about passing the exam!)

There were lots of legal CPA items, in the material. It seemed very technical items that would not normally be in the realm of a financial advisor.

I don't do Read-to-me audio ---but glad you have it. This course did not have the example videos, which I find very very helpful in understanding the material better.

I don't like that you can't use control F to search the entire course. You can onlyu search the chapter you are in. Usually the whole course is searchable

All the 3 letter a acronyms were confusing. there should be a cumulative list to refer to.

On the Cybersecurity and Cyber-Enabled Fraud page, consider breaking up and simplifying the last sentence on the page. I was listening to the audio and got completely lost in the sentence! I had to go back to read it, and even then it was like crawling through a thicket of words. Less legalese, more English, please.

Scenario-based knowledge checks would be more effective and make the material come alive, which would also make it more memorable.

I appreciate being able to go through the material at my own pace.

This was too long!

I always use WebCe for my mandatory exams.

Excellent material presented in an easy to follow manner.

Simple information and easy to understand and apply to the questions

Excellent course content.

This one was way too long given the content.

The course was extremely dense with a significant amount of definitions and straight memorization, which was hard to get through.

Extremely informative and I learned so very much!!!!

It was rather simplistic.

This is a very long course for just 1/2 CE credit. You should allow more credit considering the time to complete this course.

He read it a little bit too fast. I had to take time to go back to reread some of it myself.

It was pretty long time wise.

This course should have been 1.5 to 2 hours credit.

Some of this was new information and incredibly helpful.

Most of your questions have 3 bone-head answers and 1 obvious answer making the choice too easy in my opinion.

way too much information

Just too detailed for what was needed to convey

This course was designed for accountants and not IAR's but this was included with the 6 credits I need to complete my IAR requirements for this year. The information on Ponzi schemes was pertinent but all the discussion about various tax forms and filing requirements was completely foreign to me and unrelated to my professional licenses. Do not include this for other IAR's, it was a complete waste of my time! Sorry if I'm a bit harsh, this really frustrated me!

Easy to understand thank you

On page 5 of the PDF print out, the text says in error that T-bonds share the same characteristics as a T-bill. It should be the same characteristics as a T-note.

Content is very good. Mostly current and helpful

Very technical and long.

was concise

course too long

well designed flow of information

very interesting examples

It was confusing when I tried to select courses for multiple CE requirements. Hope you can have a bundled package for CA insurance, CFP and IAR CE at one click.

The test questions relating to tax forms is too specialized for general investment advisors and is much more relevant for tax professionals.

This course is primarily for CFPs.

The audio feature was not available for Quantum Computing Risks and Conclusion sections.

This is my first course and I didn't interpret clearly that the audio would be read aloud. I just stopped it at the beginning of each page as I prefer to read silently.

I would recommend reducing the amount of lengthy textual material. Summarize it in bullet form.

Why can't I add my CPWA and CFP license numbers to receive CE credit?

There are issues with the ROTH conversion and the 5 year rule that are inaccurate after the age of 59 1/2 that should be corrected.

Highly intuitive format for completing CE.

Should be 1.0-1.5 hours credit. Ridiculously low amount of credit for time spent.

Good information

Good information

Informative

Great course.

Great course. Perhaps a little to long.

Great course.

The section on case law could've been presented in a more reader friendly format. The current format, a bulleted list, doesn't make the information very accessible. Maybe interactives, at least drop downs, would've been more effective.

too much focus on individual IRS paragraphs/rules

Excellent course! I enjoyed it!

The CE module does not differentiate between a "rollover" and a 'transfer". It states IRA assets can be rolled over. This is incorrect. IRA assets cannot be rolled over. A company sponsored plan, such as a 401k, can be rolled over, such as into an IRA. However, IRA assets can only be transferred. Rollover is a specific term; the program treats as a univeral term. I also believe the program states incorrect information when talking about nonqualified Roth beneficiaries. It states nonqualified roth beneficiaries can take life time withdraws. This is incorrect. The 5 year rule applies. Reference irs pub 590B.

Excellent course! Actionable principles immediately applicable in practice. - MAI

This course seemed more appropriate for a CPA or attorney than for an investment advisor. Although I found some of the cases interesting, I felt memorizing form numbers etc., a waste.

Very informative. Good review

A little heavy on ALL AML-related laws on the books and short on what placement, layering and integration look like. Also not enough info on red flags that might require a SAR.

way too much content for 1/2 credit hour

Great examples

A little too much info that could be redundant at times, but overall was very good.

Too much information and too long for 1/2 hour credit.

Good course covering pertinent topics!

Very informative.

Great topic and much needed. Very good topics

I had to leave my computer for a few minutes and the course did not save my place. had to start over

Great course

A detailed subject, especially with the distribution options. You made them clear.

This course was for CPAs more that IARs

Too hard to find required course and register on website.

Always fair and easy material to go over

Well done for a CE course

WEB CE is a good place for CE they are always well done.

I always find them well done for CE

The AI narrator was clear but didn't have very natural inflections with some of the words making it a little distracting. This technology is getting better but a human voice might make the narration easier to retain

information around the tax forms was confusing

Not sure why one of the test questions is asking for a specific section of the tax code.

The contents were well selected and timely. I liked the indept look at scammers and the IRS dirty 12. The ponzi schemes was effective.

Course well managed and presented

WAY too many exam questions

We have all seen this over and over. But good to read through quickly and refresh knowledge

Good course.

I did not like the 'read it to me audio" I prefer to read the slides myself.

quickly accomplished this course and efficiently moved on!

The questions are hard.

too much for 1/2 hr credit

Excellent CE Materials and Learning Guides!

The course was very informative and met my learning on the topic

The exam that was given with this course does not match the materials of the course at all. I completed the course and then none of the questions were relevant to the materials. Fortunately I was familiar with enough of the exam questions that I was able to pass the exam and gain my certificate.

Everything was easy to follow. Thank you.

The content of this course was EXTREMELY long and WAY too detailed in relation to the scope and difficulty of the mercifully short exam. It took me WELL over 90 minutes to study the material and about 5 minutes for the exam. Please condense and shorten the content. It's supposed to be 1/2 hour. Too, the "AML & The Law" Practice Question has the incorrect answer. Though the "Correct" answer was (only) partially correct, answer B was the Best answer.

I have a question regarding when you review the incorrect answer on the test they don't provide you with the correct answer. Why?

Provide a 1.75 playback speed option. 2.0 can be too fast and 1.5 can drag on.

Very well organized and made easy to understand and prepare for exam.

TOO MUCH LEGAL CASE STUDY. I M NOT A LAWYER.

This one was a little confusing but I think I have clarity

too many to list. Directions to proceed, buttons, etc.

Have done many Finra CEs with better efficiency. This one much less so!

too many to list. Directions to proceed, buttons, etc.

test is way too easy, videos are tedious. Just give a PDF with information and test on it

This was a fun course. I would provide more examples of people getting caught and the courts penalties, as they are memorable and interesting.

Some of the questions didn't match the correct answer.

I would like to print out the materials. There is no apparent way to do so.

Very well organized and clearly developed.

as always educational and easy to use to attain my CE

It was a great course

This WebCE course was very comprehensive

The "half hour" course is impossible to complete in 30 minutes. This should be at least a 1 hour CE credit.

Course was well written. I found "zero" typos.

I believe there is an error in the content. The Example: Indirect Rollovers states that Dave, age 55, who took an indirect rollover but did not deposit the full amount with in 60 days QUALIFIES FOR AN EXCEPTION to the 10% tax on early distributions. I don't think that is correct.

Excellent format! Great content, and very well presented. Very impressed.

There was one question I did not answer, I think it was question 5 or 6, regarding a client who contributes to a 401(k) and makes 450K per year. As far as I could see none of the answers provided were true. The client makes too much money to contribute anything to a Roth or an IRA, if he is contributing to a 401(k).

I would love longer sections 5 minutes minimum and preferably 10 - 15 minutes. I spend time listening to CE while I bike/drive etc. If I miss something I will listen to it again or go back to the computer to see what I missed. Also, looking at graphs on my iPhone was difficult.

Quite a learning process. Very well written.

my last exam question was not graded properly. The answer showing was not my answer. I had selected the first option(a) willful and deliberate.

Very good CE courses

The scoring on the completed test did not calculate accurately. Test completed did not move down. Thanks

Too many questions given the content.

Really enjoyed this one! It kept my interest throughout.

One of the best courses I have taken on Webce. Very interesting and enjoyed learning it.

pronunciations are odd, seems like AI generated. I would appreciate a human instead

Learned more about the tax law in this area. I was not aware of this subject before.

Interesting topic with excellent discussion of red flags.

The audio was terrible - the person's voice was so monotone as to induce drowsiness. You should stick to a real person, not an AI bot.

Course material helped me get a better understanding of the subject matter.

I liked the audio which assisted in the comprehension and retention of the material.

It was a very interesting tax topic.

One was what "business entities" were included in ponzi schemes or something like that - The choices were a couple filing a joint return, a sole proprietor LLC, and a deceased person's estate! My answer, which is correct is the second one - a sole proprietor filing as an LLC! The others are not business entities! I had another but it's gone -

I learned a lot This is must take course for any CFP -given all the recent changes to the tax code

Exam question need clarification on what is considered a "business entity"

I thought the information was very informative about the Ponzi Schemes,

The content was very good, the visuals were ok, but the voice-over was far too monotone and expressionless.

There was a question that did not coincide with the material and another question had the wrong answer as the correct answer.

great course, succinct, and easy to understand

great course, succinct, and easy to understand

Question 1 on the exam was confusing.

One of the review questions had all correct answers. Seemed the question should have read what ios NOT one of the responsibilities of the AML individual

I believe that the WebCE offerings are the best CE tools I have experienced. The comprehensive data, clear language, and organization is excellent. The PDF study guides are also great reference booklets for for m y desk. Well done.

one review question- I answered correctly, and said I didn't,. One review question I think is worded wrong- the one about the person being responsible for paying the fines.

One of the last review questions said my response was incorrect, yet the answer it said was correct is the answer I selected.

One of my "beefs" with AML training is so much focus on each piece of legislation and what it did/does, rather than more focus on rules applying to my area of business and ensuring all rules are understand rather than which piece of legislation made the rule.

The content needs to be summed up. The course took a significant amount of time to complete for .5 CE hours.

The interaction between cfp and insurance courses could be clearer

Nice to keep up with the changing rules since they can get confusing even for veterans of the industry.

Excellent material. Having worked in retirement rollovers for over twenty-five years, I still learned a few new things in the course and had others refreshed.
