This is a very practical course on computerized accounting with QuickBooks 2001. Accounting has come a long way; from the old ledgers and columnar pads to complete automated systems. QuickBooks is a great tool that facilitates transaction recording, posting to ledgers, writing checks, preparing invoices, performing reconciliation and most importantly preparing the company financial statements with a few simple clicks. Students will learn how to set up a company from scratch, prepare invoices, purchase orders, reconcile bank and credit card accounts quickly and easily, write checks, do online banking, prepare budgets, process payroll, prepare quarterly payroll taxes and much more. The course is designed to give the student self-confidence, speed and accuracy in working with this software. Students who master the program will extend their accounting knowledge beyond measure. They will feel capable of doing computerized accounting work, not only for other companies, but also may contemplate the idea of starting their own bookkeeping practice. Students need to have at least "Introductory" accounting experience to participate in the class. The QuickBooks software, while recommended, is not necessary. Enroll today!
