Quickbooks & Accounting Training

Nothing is more critical to the ability to manage an organization than having financial reports that are accurate, timely and designed to ease decision-making. The first step is to have a good basic knowledge of what accounting really is. With that knowledge you can set up QuickBooks software to give you the information you need—when you need it.

Accounting 101

This class is designed to give managers and non-financial folks a better understanding of the accounting function. You will learn the very basics of accounting and understand how one can turn everyday business documents (invoices, cash receipts) into financial statements that the organization can use to manage its business.
