The Good, the Bad and the Ugly of Today’s Unthinkable World: An Entrepreneurial Perspective

This course helps you make sense of the disorder, chaos, and uncertainty shaping today’s world. You’ll explore the “good” — promising technologies, mindsets, and positive economic outcomes; the “bad” — disparities and inequalities created by these forces; and the “ugly” — those who seek to undermine economic systems. Through real-world examples, you’ll see how different actors impact the global economy.
You will also discover entrepreneurial solutions aimed at building a hopeful and sustainable future for humanity.

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
