You will then use this skill to convert physical events, such as selling goods and services, etc., into accounting transactions using the standard accounting journals.

This course will provide you with a core knowledge of how small business financial statements are organized, prepared, and analyzed.

So far we now have over 2,000 enrollees from 30 different countries around the world. Although written in consideration of U.S. accounting rules and tax law, the primary objective of the course is to teach double-entry accounting.

The Double-Entry Accounting Method is Universal

Double-entry accounting originated in Italy in the early 1400’s. Accounting terminology may differ somewhat in various countries, but can be inter-changed without too much difficulty.

Each concept is simply and clearly explained. Your results are progressively measured, so you always know where you are and where you left off.

John Day, MBA

The course is taught in the format of a seminar. It is a dialogue between a teacher and seven students (you being the seventh). John Day(Instructor) has spent the last twenty plus years in the accounting field and has heard just about every question that can be asked about accounting basics. Using a question/answer format he is able to address and focus on these questions in a way not possible when using a straight text approach. In addition, a dialogue approach helps the subject matter become more personal and lively.
