User Feedback:

"I did this course in the morning and attended a CRA workshop on the T3010A Charitable returns. The course helped me understand the workshop and I was able to help other participants with the knowledge that I gained through the online course. I also recommended to the other participants that they register for the Charity Village receipting course."
