"Deirdre covered all elements of the course in a patient and easy going manner which allowed us all ask questions and ensure we understood each unit. We had lots of notes and materials and got to complete plenty of examples online. Personally I felt i got a good grasp of all material on the course."
Betty Goff

""I found the bookkeeping Level 6, excellent, it covered the manual and computerised accounting system very comprehensively. Not only did it teach me all aspects of double entry and accounting concepts, it also showed me how to set up a business accounting system on Sage and how to use the Sage Accounting system, the course was pitched at a level which allowed me to learn quickly and in depth. The course material was very good and Deirdre, the tutor, was excellent, and always got back to me if I had queries outside of the course time. The assignments were excellent and the learning hub where I had access to the material. It also taught me how to work online with other people, how to work independently, how to stick with a problem and find ways of solving it. The tutor Deirdre did a great job of communicating with us and explaining the various assignments and made it a more intimate arrangement. I highly recommend this course.
