Surgent's "Max the Tax" short, interactive CPE and CE courses recognized in the Game-based Curriculum Solution category
RADNOR, Pa., May 5, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Surgent Accounting & Financial Education, a division of KnowFully Learning Group, was named the winner of a Bronze Stevie® Award in The 20th Annual American Business Awards®. More than 3,700 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories. Surgent's new "Max the Tax" series of game-based CPE and CE courses, part of "Surgent Interactive", was nominated in the Game-based Curriculum Solution category.
"Max the Tax" uses real-world scenarios to keep accounting, tax and financial professionals engaged as they develop skills and earn credits needed to maintain their credentials. In each course, they interview various taxpayers and adjust their tax returns based on their answers. Learners apply their knowledge of tax laws and earn a score based on the quality of the interview and the adjustments they make.
"We are honored to be among the winners of the 2022 American Business Awards and congratulate the other organizations who were nominated this year," said Liz Kolar, Surgent's executive vice president. "Our team works incredibly hard to make continuing education fun and engaging for accounting and financial professionals. It is thrilling to receive this recognition from the judges, particularly so soon after the release of the 'Max the Tax' series and our 'Surgent Interactive' platform."
More than 230 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year's Stevie Award winners. Judges noted that "Max the Tax" is an "extremely innovative offering" that has "potential … with real-world interactive gaming for learning beyond accounting, as well."
The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.'s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.
Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning "crowned," the awards will be presented to winners at a gala ceremony at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York on Monday, June 13. Tickets are now on sale.
