PDA Book-keeping

Course description

This professional development award delivers the essential skills and knowledge for a career in book-keeping or working in an accounting or financial administration role. The PDA courses are quick and cost effective to deliver, so are ideal for developing the skills of young people, graduates, and other adult learners. They are also ideal for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) so employers can enhance the skills of their employees. Special Features: This course will allow you to develop technical and administrative knowledge relevant to book-keeping and financial accounting practice. You will acquire manual book-keeping abilities using commercially-produced financial accounting software (SAGE Accounting and SAGE Payroll) to record accounting transactions, prepare accounting reports and process payroll. You will need access to SAGE Accounting and SAGE Payroll in order to take part in the course - this can be purchased at your own cost or, alternatively, is available via the PCs at your local campus. You will also develop skills in basic payroll procedures using manual and computerised systems.
