THE ACADEMY is a free, animated e-learning platform for IFRS and CPD — built around real Ghanaian businesses, real characters and real money. No textbooks. No paywalls. Just learning that sticks because it sounds like home.
Every lesson is free to watch and free to share. CPD certificates are free too — no paywall, no trial, no subscription.
Characters and scenarios drawn from real Ghanaian life — chop bars, traders, OMCs, churches, contractors. Not generic textbook examples.
Each course is structured for ICAG-style CPD: short modules, end-of-module quiz, certificate on 80%+ completion.
Six episodes, six quizzes, one certificate. Built around the TerraGold Developments scenario — a GH₵800,000 off-plan home sale through Mrs. Ama Owusu, with five distinct deliverables and an 18-month payment schedule. The five-step IFRS 15 model — taught the way working accountants actually meet it.
The five-step model, told through Auntie Akos's bridal shop in Makola and TerraGold Developments in East Legon. When does revenue belong on the books — and how much?
Expected credit losses through the eyes of a susu collector and a microfinance officer in Kumasi. Classification, impairment, hedge accounting — grounded in scenarios you actually see.
Right-of-use assets explained through a fuel-station tenant agreement and a tro-tro lease arrangement. Lessee & lessor accounting, modifications, sub-leases.
THE ACADEMY closes that gap. Standards are explained through people, places and businesses that feel like home — Auntie Akos, Mrs. Ama Owusu, the chop bar in Osu, the contractor in Tema — so the principle sticks long after the lesson ends.
We start with IFRS for CPD because that is where the gap is biggest. Over time, the same approach will cover audit, tax, valuation, soft skills and trades — anywhere learning is needed and access is short.
Free. Forever. Sustained by sponsorship and the wider DO Consulting practice — never by paywalling its own learners.
