competencies in mathematics for business and personal use. Students will
begin with a basic math review and use these skills in real-life problem
solving. The course focuses on awareness of consumer-related issues and
strives to help students become "more informed" consumers.
After a student completes the Enrolled Agent Review, they take the
Special Enrollment Examination ( SEE) at a Prometic local site.
