COURSE CODE HLBB1

Enrol Online >>

Overview:
Would you like a new career in book-keeping or accounts? Perhaps you would like to learn how to keep your own books for a small business you run, or provide a book-keeping service for other businesses in your area?

Assuming no prior knowledge, this course provides a comprehensive and up to date training in basic book keeping and accountancy skills, presented in a form, which takes particular note of the needs of students working on their own. BB1 deals thoroughly with all the basic aspects of book keeping, from double entry methods to the preparation of year end accounts and balance sheets, including the use of computer based account systems. You will learn how to set up and keep accounts for a small business, how to prepare monthly and annual figures, and how to present these in a format acceptable for taxation.

Support:
As a Direct Home Learning student you will be allocated a personal tutor who will mark and help you with your work. You will also have access to our tutorial support service during normal office hours, for all the practical advice you may need.

Assessment:
This course includes a number of tutor marked assessments that you complete as part of your coursework and then forward to your tutor. These consist of dummy accounts to prepare and short questions on specific topics within the course.

Career prospects:
Book-keeping is an essential function within every commercial, charitable or government enterprise in the economy. Whilst many students simply take the course to gain these skills for use in their own business, the career options for a competent book-keeper are enormous.

What's included:

  • All required learning materials to complete your diploma,
  • Flexibility to study when and where it suits you best, at home in your own time and at your own pace,
  • Telephone, postal and email access to your dedicated tutor,
