Introduction to Accounting and Bookkeeping
This course is designed for individuals who want to handle bookkeeping correctly and with confidence, whether you are learning bookkeeping as a professional skill or managing your own business finances in QuickBooks Online.
If you’ve ever wondered why QuickBooks behaves the way it does, felt unsure whether your numbers are truly accurate, or worried that small mistakes could turn into bigger problems later, this training provides the foundation you need to move forward with clarity.
The course is divided into two complementary parts:
Part 1: Accounting Foundations for Bookkeeping
You’ll learn the core accounting concepts that directly impact day-to-day bookkeeping. These lessons focus on understanding cause and effect—so you know why transactions affect reports the way they do and can spot issues before they become costly errors. This is practical, applied accounting designed to support real-world bookkeeping decisions, not academic theory.
Part 2: Bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online
You’ll receive guided, step-by-step instruction inside QuickBooks Online, along with explanations of common mistakes, best practices, and workflows that help keep books clean and reliable. The goal is not just to show where to click, but to help you understand what “correct” looks like and how to maintain it consistently.
This course is especially helpful if:
You are a business owner who wants to manage your own books properly instead of outsourcing
You want confidence that your financial reports can be relied on
You are learning bookkeeping and want to build strong, professional habits from the beginning
You want to stop piecing together information from random tutorials and follow a structured system
By the end of the course, you’ll have a clear framework for how bookkeeping works, how accounting principles support it, and how to apply both correctly in QuickBooks Online—so you can move forward without constant second-guessing.
