Are you doing your bookkeeping with blinders on? Do you want a clearer understanding of the “big picture”?
We are providing our hands-on bookkeeping training for small groups in a COVID19-safe environment. With a new look – but the same great curriculum we’ve always provided – our experienced, qualified instructors are looking forward to working with you to improve your full-cycle bookkeeping knowledge. These courses are great for those who have evolved into bookkeeping on the job and want to improve their foundational knowledge, those new to the profession, as well as those small business owners who have found themselves doing their own books. Multiple convenient locations serving Edmonton and surrounding areas.
Each of our courses is 14 hours and are led by the instructors (Shelley & Samantha & Erin) you have come to know and love at other training institutions. Now known as the ‘ClearSight Bookkeeping Instructors Team’, they (along with Marge) are excited to be working under our own flagship to help you hone your bookkeeping knowledge. Seating is limited, so to find out how to save your spot in these courses, fill in the contact form on this website.
