Accountants Academy is an online knowledge platform for accountants in the Belgian market with more than 5,000 users.

Visma has taken over the Accountants Academy. The young company from Ghent offers an online LMS (Learning Management System) that gives accountants the opportunity to manage their own growth and developments. For Visma, the acquisition is an opportunity to expand its solution portfolio for the accounting industry with a knowledge platform.

The Accountants Academy was founded in March 2020, on the eve of the pandemic. The founders had the ambition to become the “Netflix” for accountants: an online learning environment where professionals can follow courses regardless of location or time without having to travel. Just like with the streaming service, you can use all of the platform’s offerings without restriction for a fixed price.

Learning Management System (LMS)

In three years, Accountants Academy has evolved from a training provider to a Learning Management System (LMS) tailored to accounting professionals. It offers customers access to a platform where they can not only find a wide range of relevant training, but also centralize their own knowledge by adding and sharing content themselves. With clients in more than 500 accounting firms, Accountants Academy now serves more than 5,000 users.

Nothing will change for Accountants Academy customers. The company will continue to offer its proven services and products, but will have access to additional resources within the Visma Group.

Ecosystem with established names

Cédric Vercamer, CEO and founder of the Accountants Academy: “Visma offers a unique opportunity to advance our activities. With Yuki, AdminPulse and Silverfin, among others, we find many established names from the accounting industry in the ecosystem, which offer us a platform to exchange experiences across national borders and to serve our customers even better.”

“Our first goal is to continue to surprise customers in the Flemish market with even better services tailored to the accounting sector. In the long term, we are certainly open to the opportunities that arise to expand our learning system to the Netherlands and other markets where we see potential,” says Vercamer.
