About Ron LaPlante
Preparedness for professional accounting and auditing examinations is all about one thing – practice. With practice it is becomes far easier to know what to expect and to be confident when test day arrives. Comfort is also a valuable commodity to have on exam day. My courses are designed to prepare students with the questions and topics they will face on that day. Having been exposed to and prepared for the topics are the building blocks for successful examination preparation.
I am not loathe to speak at length on topics, but I do not waste time with lecture as I am sure that your professors and instructors have guided and built your knowledge and you have worked hard in the past to now contemplate taking the CPA, CMA and CIA examinations. My classes are filled with questions, old examination questions, the latest examination questions available to prepare for the exams, and my own questions that give more practice to the more difficult topics and fill gaps on topics I believe need more emphasis and are not covered adequately in other material. I supplement my questions with Gleim Publications, Inc. books and downloaded questions that I offer to students. If students become accustomed to face question after question in my classes, there is little reason to be nervous and unsure on examination day. This is not drudgery; there is a relaxed atmosphere, the place to make your mistakes without penalty!
In 1988 I studied for the CPA and the CMA examination at the same time. I passed both those examinations five weeks apart in 1989, and the following year I passed the CIA examination with just 50 hours of studying, illustrating just how similar much of the material is for these three examinations. Having prepared for and passed eight professional examinations, I pass this experience on to my students as to how study for examinations, including tips for successful question analyzing and focusing on key words to increase students’ for selecting the correct response to examination questions.
My competitors charge more due to the overhead and profit margin they encounter and desire. In working alone, I do not face these issues, which is why my prices are affordable. I am also a consultant as you can see by my resume. I do this because I enjoy instructing and I also learn a great deal from my students. My goal is threefold for my students – raises, promotions and/or new jobs!
Testimonials
From Mike Palmer - "
Ronald's CIA Preparation class, held on three consecutive Saturdays in the fall of 2007, assisted me in passing Parts I, II and III of the CIA Exam in one sitting. Ronald provides a wealth of information to help one study, and I was able to complete the course and get in the studying while working full time."
From Jennifer Hall - "
Ron helped me prepare for and pass the CMA exam. He was able to guide my studies for each of the four parts and provided excellent resources for learning how to pass the exam."
