I don't know of any free bookkeeping courses that would be of any value.



I would recommend taking a few courses at your local junior college if you are serious about opening a bookkeeping service. You will have a very hard time finding clients if you don't know what you are doing.



I would suggest taking at least one basic accouting course, a course in Excel and a course in Payroll Accounting if you plan on doing payroll.



Also, I highly suggest a course in QuickBooks or, better yet, becoming a QuickBooks ProAdvisor. You can check into that at www.quickbooks.com. There are a lot of people on QuickBooks and knowing how to set-up and use this program is a big plus.



You will need to check with your state regarding sales taxes and payroll taxes to see what is due and when. Sales taxes need to be paid once a month and payroll taxes usually every month or quarter. Check out the IRS website as well for payroll taxes. You will learn about this in Payroll accounting.



TIP: If you cannot afford the courses - find out what book they are using and study it yourself. You may be able to purchase the book cheaper on Ebay.



I would also like to recommend the American Institute of Professional Bookkeepers at www.aipb.com. They have great books that you can study and you can also become a certified bookkeeper.



Good luck!

In order to get an in depth training in bookkeeping/accounting, you must take a basic accounting course either in local junior college. No company will hire non-accounting major interns either.

eye-witnesses from prisoners,Nazis, liberators, pictures, many of the gas chambers in Poland and Germany are still there. you cannot really believe that so many people just decided to lie like that. do you realize how many people were killed. it would take a person, without stopping about a month and a half to count to six million. everyone always says the number 6 million but often times poeple don't realize how astonishing that number is.
