Module 1 of the Professional Bookkeeper™ program, Accounting Made Easy, teaches you the fundamentals of Bookkeeping in a practical, hands-on methodology. You will learn by doing, the best way for the skills that you gain to stick. If you have ever read a book on a subject and found that you couldn’t retain the knowledge when you needed it later, you already know the value of learning by doing, involving more of your brain in the learning process. As you complete the practice sets in the Professional Bookkeeping course, you become familiar with the processes involved in day-to-day PB Accounting and Bookkeeping tasks. They become second nature to you, enabling you to focus on higher level things.

Module 2 teaches you how to apply those principles to specific industries. You will learn to set up books from scratch, setting up all of the ledgers and journals needed to do full service Bookkeeping Accounting for your paying clients. Your clients will learn that you are the only financial analyst that they will ever need because you can do it all!
