This is interesting to me because my company (Puget Sound Technology)
teaches open source classes. We currently planning our fall courses to
start include office training (in addition to administrator classes we
already offer for a few years).

We hope to provide gnucash training in our upcoming schedule (but we don't
have course materials yet).

This seems like an okay idea.

Can you provide some links or leads on where to get started with getting a
tutorial registered with CPA Boards of different states?

Can you provide information or examples of current tutorials that gnucash
tutorials should emulate?

Thank you,
