LearnWorlds Courses — What Should APG Offer Next?

The Board and Education Committee are planning the next round of course development for our LearnWorlds catalog. We want to hear from YOU — what topics would be most valuable? :mega:

Current catalog covers: Ethics, GAAP, Tax Strategy, AI & Automation, Data Analytics, Leadership, Communication, Forensic Accounting, Nonprofit Finance, CPE Planning, Networking.

Some ideas we’re considering:

  • International accounting standards (IFRS)
  • ESG/Sustainability reporting
  • Advanced Excel modeling
  • Cybersecurity for finance professionals
  • Mergers & acquisitions due diligence

What would you add? What gaps do you see? Drop your suggestions below! :arrow_down:

Advanced data visualization and Python for finance would be amazing! The Data Analytics course is a great foundation, but I’d love a more technical follow-up that goes deeper into tools like Pandas, matplotlib, and building automated reporting pipelines.

International tax topics would be incredibly valuable. More and more of my clients have cross-border considerations, and the current course catalog doesn’t cover OECD guidelines, transfer pricing, or treaty interpretation. This is a significant gap.

Grant writing and management for nonprofits! Financial management is covered, but the grant lifecycle — from application through compliance and reporting — is its own specialized skill set. Many nonprofit finance professionals need this.

Industry-specific accounting courses would be great. Manufacturing accounting (cost accounting, inventory, WIP) is quite different from services-based accounting. A course tailored to specific sectors would fill a real need.

More beginner-friendly tech courses please! The AI course is great but assumes a certain comfort level. An “Introduction to Technology for Finance Professionals” that covers the basics (APIs, databases, cloud computing) would help people like me bridge the gap.
