When I worked on software and websites, I had quite a collection of "Cheat Sheets", "Fact Cards", and "Shortcuts". Are there any around for Bookkeeping and Accounts ? cheers

I would like to study bookeeping and eventually go into accountancy but I am confused as where to start. I would like to study via distance learning as I currently work. After looking into courses I have come across ICB, IAB, AAT and I am unsure as to what is the best route to take. Any advice would be great...

After seeing Shaun's thread about the cheap Sage course on Amazon I wondered if there's anything else i should look out for - is there anything I can pop on my CV to make a potential employer/customer think 'wow, she's got experience in that!'

I brought Sage 2 payroll training kit on Ebay brand new in the box, installed it onto my laptop and everything was fine. Really good course and everything. The problem is that my laptop had to go in to be repaired and when it came back and I went to use the software it said it had expired. I know it hadn't c...

Hi all, Just hoping for a bit of advice really. I have passed my Level 1 Manual exam and am sitting the Level 2 Manual exam on Weds (eek!) but I understand that to become a member of ICB I now will have to pass the computerised Level 2 exam as well? I really don't want to shell out more money on a course for this a...

Hi guys, I've been searching for ages and I was wondering if there are any textbooks which would be vaguely suitable for ICB III Payroll and the Self Assessment exam too? Or is it enough just to order past papers? Also, is it Sage Instant Payroll that is required for the payroll exam? What would be needed...

How much of the centre based exams are based on describing something rather than actual book-keeping. The book-keeping things I could do I hope (if I can't then I don't deserve to pass anyway) as I should be able to think about things logically. But the describing of things based on memorising them is c...

Theres been a lot of discussion on the forum about which organisation to join when first starting and I wish I had known the following before I made my choice.

I've been reading through the threads and everyone seems to be ICB or IAB qualified through various home learning providers (some a rip off and some not) and it always costs £1,000's.

Hi! Have finished IAB Level 3, and want to go on and qualify AAT asap. I have years accounting experience, but distance-learning colleges will not exempt me from the last but one AAT level because I don't have much costing experience. I thought because at AAT, each level is divided into units or pap...
