Bookkeeping skills are an essential tool for those working as part of the finance community. A knowledge of debits and credits helps team members in Purchase & Sales Ledger, Payroll and other support functions see the big picture of where the transactions they process go and how they impact on the financial statements.
Our highly interactive practical bookkeeping courses will guide delegates through the basics of double entry bookkeeping and relate these ideas to the transactions & business of your organisation. There will be plenty of exercises for the delegates to practice these techniques on the course.
The course is structured as an initial 2 day block to take delegates through the basics of double entry bookkeeping. A further one day follow up course will then look at the accounting for transactions that are unique or specific to your organisation.
