Hi. I have just come across this amazing forum. I am looking to get a qualification in Book Keeping but unsure what the best option is. I currently work for my family business and looking after all the admin, invoicing and payroll. I have been here over 15 years but having just hit 50 I would like to look at stepping away from my family and obtaining qualifications for becoming a self-employed bookkepper.
I did the old YTS in secretarial skills back in the early 90s and having worked in admin since, but no other major qualifications apart from GCSEs.
I look after all the accounts side of things - I just send the end of figures off to our accountant. Any advice on whether to look at ICB, AAT or IAB would be gratefully received - I would prefer to complete online.
