The HOCK Study Materials are comprehensive, easy-to-read to accommodate non-native English speakers, and provide exactly the right information to pass your exams, covering what is required without including any unnecessary topics. Unlike "self-study" systems, you will not study alone. Our experienced staff is available to answer questions, and online discussions with fellow students round out your learning experience.
Using a laptop computer or mobile device such as an iPad, you can study wherever you go and for as long as you need to pass the exams. The Downloaded Study Materials include access to the following components, all of which can be viewed on the screen and printed out:
| Textbook | The textbook is the foundation of our program and provides complete background, explanations and examples. There is no need to purchase other books or reference materials. Download the CPA Textbooks' Tables of Contents. |
| Flash Cards | Our most popular review tool, the flash cards are valuable when study time is limited. They are convenient to carry with you, or read on your screen, for quick review anytime, anywhere. |
| Free Updates | Our Study Materials are regularly updated to reflect revisions in the exam syllabus, changing accounting standards, and new governmental regulations. You will be able to download updated material at no charge whenever new materials are posted online. |
| Teacher Support | As you study, you can contact us and receive answers from our teachers who are eager to guide you when you have a specific question. The forum also provides dynamic student discussions for each of the exams, and is monitored by HOCK teachers to maintain technical accuracy. |
For complete information about our computer and mobile device compatibility, please see our CPA Electronic Materials and File Formats page.
Proper preparation for the CPA Exams requires that you practice as many past CPA Exam questions as possible, both multiple-choice questions and longer problems. While any of the CPA software available should be sufficient, we recommend the BISK CPA Review Software. HOCK Training in Eastern Europe uses the Bisk Software with the HOCK materials for their classroom students with very good results. Note that we do NOT recommend that you purchase more than one Review Software. All of the software available from any company should be using the same CPA released questions, so there will be little difference among them. Finally, while some companies include non-CPA questions in their software, experience shows that sometimes the non-CPA questions may lead to time being wasted studying questions and topics that are unlikely to be tested.
The Printed Study Materials include hard copy textbooks and flash cards, plus electronic access to all of the Downloaded Study Materials, giving you the flexibility of studying online or offline without having the hassle or expense of doing your own printing. The printed textbooks and flash cards have the same content as the downloaded textbooks and flash cards.
HOCK is the first and only company providing CMA Materials, CIA Materials and CPA Materials in PDF for use on the iPad and other mobile devices.

The HOCK mateirals are extremely well written and presented. They have painstakingly researched the CMA syllabus and included the required level of detail - not too much, and not too little. No discussion of the HOCK materials will be complete without a mention of the wonderful, timely and meticulous support provided by Lynn. Kudos to you and thank you once again.
