QuickBooks Desktop
QuickBooks is the most widely used accounting software in Canadian businesses.
The course provides the hands-on training to ensure students gain confidence in applying accounting concepts in real-world situations. Through step-by-step exercises and guided examples, participants will learn how to navigate QuickBooks Desktop efficiently and accurately.
You will learn the different uses for each module and journal, be able to set up a company from a template of accounts, and print, and understand the various reporting features of QuickBooks. By the end of the course, students will be able to use QuickBooks Desktop as a powerful tool for bookkeeping, financial reporting, and decision making.
Please note the Accounting and QuickBooks sections of the course can be taken separately as per student discretion. We highly encourage students to take both courses as Accounting Essentials covers theory and QuickBooks Desktop applies the practice. Taking both courses will give you a complete skill set—fully preparing you to pursue job opportunities or successfully manage your own business.
