| World-class Curriculum Each piece of the TPI curriculum has been designed and developed around the adult learner, and further enhanced to be relevant to today’s public accountant. Candidly, this is where TPI stands apart from other offerings. Professionally developed curriculum is more than just a pretty PowerPoint deck and photocopied materials. |

| Peer Network Development & Best Practices Forums TPI graduates all reference the network of peers that they develop across the three-year experience as one of the biggest benefits of the program. Additionally, we have three unique points within the curriculum where participants are exposed to best-practices from around the profession which can then be adopted within their own firms. |

| Web-based Learning In addition to classroom instruction, TPI participants also attend a series of six web-based presentations that cover timely topics related to the recently completed or upcoming classroom topics. |

| Sponsor/Coach Checkpoints On a periodic basis, the TPI coach will connect with the participant’s firm sponsor to provide feedback on the student’s progress throughout the program. Additionally, the coach will interact with the participant’s sponsor in advance of the initial session to identify specific things the firm would like the participant to focus on over the course of their TPI experience. |

| A Proven Track Record of Results TPI has been developing future leaders in the profession since 2004. Often imitated but never replicated, we are proud of our proven track-record of success and of the fact that we enjoy a significant amount of repeat business from firms enrolling additional participants. Don’t take our word for it though, you can hear from our graduates first hand. |
