You’re familiar with QuickBooks and have started working with your company’s account information. Now you’re ready to take things to the next level. This SCORE seminar will focus on generating meaningful reports and help you discover “next steps” needed for any corrective action or, hopefully, leverage profitability within your business.

Many business owners get lost in the special language of accounting. When you finish this class, you’ll have a better understanding of those terms and why they are important to you and your business. This is a practical class, not a theoretical lecture about accounting.  

While this is a DESKTOP QuickBooks class, registrants may bring their own laptops as you'll have free wifi access.

The Registration Fee for this three-hour class is $35.  Each attendee may later personally meet with a SCORE mentor, without cost, to review your use of QuickBooks or address any other business questions you may have.  To assure a superior educational experience, registration is limited to eighteen attendees so please register early.
