Accounting Intuition specialises in using visualisation technology to help learners develop an intuitive understanding of financial principles. Part of the Metapraxis Group, which provides management information software to some of the world’s most complex companies, Accounting Intuition teaches practices utilised by Metapraxis itself. Their courses are also fully accredited by the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants.

With the aim of demystify accounting, Accounting Intuition uses advanced visualisation technology to provide students with a coherent understanding of the profession's principles and teach them how various accounts fit together systematically, something that even some qualified accountants struggle with.
