Apparently it's free if you are interested in just learning.

That's correct but if the OP wants to sit for the CPA exam he needs course credit. Taking it for funsies doesn't count.

I should add that I'm almost finished with UVA's accounting certificate program. Some (not all) of the classes are online, and it's very legit - UVA has one of the top accounting programs in the country.

But like I said, you can take it from any accredited institution and it still counts.
