>> My name is Stephanie Obolinski.
I'm a Field Marketing Specialist for Becker Professional Education in the Pittsburgh area.
We are owned by DeVry University
and Becker Professional Education primarily does the certified public accountant review course
so that accountants can get certified to begin their CPA.
So I work with accounting students to make sure they qualify
and to take the Becker course to prepare them for the exam.
It's a very extensive exam to become a CPA.
So primarily I travel to colleges to talk to accounting students
about the qualifications they need to qualify for the CPA exam
and how Becker can help them prepare.
I also work with firms on a daily basis in the Pittsburgh and surrounding regions.
They have contracts with us that their current employees can take the Becker Test Prep Course
to get ready for the CPA exam.
A lot of firms want their accountants to be CPA licensed.
So it's kind of two-fold.
I work with universities and I work with firms and then I also work with state societies,
accounting societies to get their members certified for CPA.
So coming into a university is kind of two-fold.
I'm meeting with instructors to see what they need from me to educate their students
and how to get them to Becker and then I'm working with students
to show them how Becker can help them.
