Course Description
Accounts Receivable management is a demanding job. You'll be making decisions that can make or break a company. Your role is unique and complex--one that is closely integrated into the overall customer service of your company. In this course, we'll look at what exactly AR is, what it is you're going to be doing, what you'll need to know to get started, why your company needs an accounts receivable department to begin with, and what some of the keys are to a successful accounts receivable department.
In this course, we're going through all the basics. You don't need any prior accounts receivable experience or knowledge to successfully complete this course. Using a 'ground-up' approach, we'll be covering topics such as 1. approving credit, 2. the billing process, 3. collecting money, 4. customer service, 5. handling deductions, 6. legal considerations, 7. bankruptcy, as well as many other important topics.
So come join the fun...Let's get started now!
Course Requirements
There are no requirements for this course, all information will be provided online. Students should have a high school reading level.
This course assumes that you have some background in accounts receivables--whether or not it was as a subordinate in your current company or it was with another company--and that you have little or no experience as a manager. However, you can still benefit and complete this course if you have no AR experience. Likely, many of the people taking this course will have been promoted from the position of clerk or coordinator (or some similar subordinate title) recently into a management role.
