I worked with Vishal on a content development project related to public sector accounting (IPSAS) for one of our large public sector clients. He has a strong understanding of the subject and the quality of content and cases prepared was really good and aided participants learning. He was very professional with his dealings and was able to efficiently turnaround a very time sensitive project. I would strongly recommend Vishal for any work related to accounting in general and IPSAS in particular...!
