Beginning Engagements With A Needs Assessment
Our work with custom clients begins with a needs assessment. This discussion allows us to understand the nature of their work and any areas for improvement uncovered during internal inspections or peer reviews. GLS can then customize course materials for a better return on training investment while establishing the client as a valued and integral collaborator in the learning process.
Our recorded content is intentionally designed taking into account hot topics in the profession, common deficiencies, and pressing issues impacting the profession.
Designing An Engaging, Learner-Focused Environment
Our instructional design is based on proven in-person and virtual training techniques and the latest in adult learning theory. Our trainers have formal education in Instructional Design, Training Delivery and Virtual Learning. Melisa received her Master Trainer™ designation through the Association for Talent Development as well as her Certified Professional in Talent Development (CPTD).
All of our employees are provided with a professional development budget to enhance their skills to be able to perform their roles to the highest standards.
Ensuring Up-To-Date and Cutting-Edge Content
GLS is committed to providing up-to-date course content and proactively staying on the cutting edge of proposed and potential future changes to standards. Our instructors participate in a number of committees in the profession designed to keep them in the know about what’s going on in the industry. We monitor standard-setting projects from the research phase all the way through to the issuance of final standards.
GLS offers a weekly video blog that overviews these proposed changes to allow CPAs to stay ahead of standard changes.
GLS is a National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) approved sponsor of both Group Live and Group Internet Based delivery methods, so we can provide a variety of options to meet your CPE needs.
Empowering CPA Professionals
Testimonials
Melisa and her team develop and deliver focused, quality training. GLS presents the most up-to-date content, and it is delivered in an engaging manner. Professionals from our most experienced partners to our most recent new hires have benefitted greatly from GLS’s training. Our engagement teams are much more effective and efficient in conducting their audits due to the training that they have received from GLS.
Jack Reagan, CPA

UHY LLP
We were very pleased with Melisa’s training. Though we had an eight-hour online class, she kept things moving all day. Never a dull moment. Her knowledge and passion for training make her an excellent trainer. Additionally, her use of technology–for example, rooms inside of Zoom–made the class engaging.
