About This Course

You love movies. You enjoy TV. You read books. That's why this is the webinar for you.

The best works in popular culture provide valuable lessons on how to live your life well. Sometimes they show what not to do, which is just as important. A good story well told is the best way to learn what it means to be both a successful CPA and an honorable human being.

This dynamic presentation for one CPD credit in ethics will provide you with a list of recommended movies, TV shows and books that are enjoyable, provocative (in the best way), and guaranteed to yield rich dividends.
