The audit basics to know before AUD, explained in plain English.
Ready for the rest of AUD? Sampling, SSARS and SSAE are expected in December 2026.
AUD 101 is where Jack recommends every CPA candidate start AUD. Before you get into procedures and standards, it builds the foundation the rest of the AUD exam sits on: what an audit actually is, who is involved, and how auditors reach their opinion. Every lesson is written and recorded by Jack himself, the same way he teaches FAR: one step at a time, in plain English, so it actually sticks.
Each chapter is short and explained in plain English, then followed by a 50-question quiz so you can test yourself as you go. The course ends with an AUD-style simulation and a full video walkthrough.
New to accounting? Jack suggests taking FAR 101 first. It's free too.
“I am almost done with the Becker FAR material and I have some gaps and didn’t feel confident on some of the material. This helped me understand the basics at an easy to comprehend level. … It increased my understanding after one video. I completed the bulk of the free course and decided to buy the complete bundle.”
“[Jack is] doing what most review courses aren't, building a very solid foundation and providing game changing tips about how to use spreadsheets in the exam making students' lives easier”
“i like how Jack explained things using simple words and examples so we understand the basic. … I have already signed up for all the other FAR courses hoping to paass the FAR exam this take.”
“[Jack] didnt have to go into crazy depth for things to click for me. Honestly [he] probably went into more detail than my undergrad professors. The way [he organizes] the info and [teaches] it is neat and simple , makes it easy to learn , [he] also give[s] good tips and reminders”
“This course helped me brush up my basics. It helped me from financial statements to journal entries. What stood out for me is how the explanations made me less anxious about studying FAR. I am an international student so it cleared some of the basics that I am supposed to know about US GAAP.”
“The part of the course that stood out to me most was how [Jack shows] learners how to utilize excel for every problem since that is a tool we can use on the exam. I think that will help with speed and accuracy on the actual exam. My biggest takeaway from this course is that all of the larger topics that seem impossible to learn can definitely be broken down to understand.”
