These Courses can be used as stand-alone educational tools covering specific areas, or alternatively, as an extension and deepening of the knowledge you acquired with the Start-Up Courses above. The key to these Courses is that they provide you with hands on tools for your business, while giving you enough technical and theoretical background for a general understanding of the problem.

How to Account for your Business is another important aspect of turning an idea into a successful business venture. Since many prospective business owners consider themselves poor "accountants", we have prepared a course that helps you install a simple, but effective accounting system. The course is based on QuickBooks, but the principles can also be applied to similar systems such as PeachTree or others. The course is suitable for micro and small business owners or start-ups. For the more advanced practitioner, we offer a course in How to prepare an Annual Operating Budget.
