KPMG in India Attendee Buzz

KPMG

classes provide excellent classroom training with precise power point presentation of key areas required to be

studied from examination point of view. Whole syllabus is well structured & planned with key topics kept at the end, i.e.
one month before exam so that it is easier to remember & lesser revision required. Also regular tests are taken once
certain number of standards is covered so as to test candidates knowledge gained during training, test results are given
with remarks that helps a student to understand weak points & improve upon them.- Atul Upadhyay (Jan 2013 Batch)

The course is very useful and practical. I have gained a lot of knowledge on IFRS. I believe that this training program is
essential to ensure we keep up-to-date with the current reporting requirements. I have found the trainer to be both
knowledgeable and professional in her delivery of material that is relevant to our needs. I would like to attend many more
such professional courses.- Nayan Gosar (June 2013 Batch)

In

KPMG training session I got practical approach to gain my goal of clearing Dip IFR exam and in which I have

succeeded in first attempt. Study material provided by KPMG and classroom practice was also helped a lot.- Mukesh
Jangir (Jan 2013 Batch)

Course is well designed to cover most aspects of IFRS. Course material provided meets international standards,
accompanied with course presentation prepared by KPMG instructors. KPMG instructors provided a knowledge rich
environment in classroom and focused on practical examples and problem solving. I do recommend this course to
everyone who wants to go ahead with career in IFRS.- Abhishek Singh (September 2013 Batch)

First things first, the session clocking for about 8 hours a day is worth every minute of attending as topics covered are
very much relevant from the perspective of exam and lecture is so meticulously designed so as to impart the whole of
course in 10 sessions. Sometimes you tend to lose concentration but the trainers have the knack to bring it back. This is
the best part of session.On the study material, KPMG + Becker material provided at the start of sessions is ample for
preparing for exams. The course material is divided into 1) Study system (the actual text) the best part of course
material is that it is very easy to revise it in a single day. 2) Revision Question Bank 3) Study question bank provide
sufficient opportunity to practice past exam and exam like questions. Now the etcetera, the venue and food deserves a
five star.
My Overall experience 4.5 stars out of 5 provided every instruction of trainer is followed.- Ankur Lodha (September
2013 Batch)
