You might be doing the books for one business already. This covers the ledger, GST, payroll, Xero and MYOB. Then it turns that into a practice with its own clients.
Clients arrive on Xero or MYOB and rarely ask which you prefer. Both get taught here.
You may already keep books for a family business. The pathway turns that into a practice with rates and clients.
One to one mentoring with a business coach, on top of tutor help with the course itself.
Small businesses need someone across the books, and most cannot justify a full time hire. That gap is where bookkeepers build a client list.
A handful of clients, each on a monthly cycle.
Wages, leave and the ledger inside one business.
Setting businesses up and cleaning up the mess.
Contract work inside an accounting practice.
Forecasts and the numbers behind a quiet quarter.
Your own practice, your own rates, your own hours.
Roles where these skills are useful, not promised outcomes. Every role is different, and some need more study or experience. The training here is not nationally recognised. Lodging BAS for clients is regulated work and has its own registration rules. Running a practice carries its own cost and risk.
Learn the books, then learn to sell the service.
The ledger side and the client side, in one pathway. Debits, GST and payroll first, then structures, a plan and how work comes to you.
Access to Xero's own certification comes with the course, through the college's Xero partnership.
Developed and delivered by an accredited training centre of the International Association of Bookkeepers.
Six months of MYOB access, a bookkeeper community subscription, and a shelf of reference titles.

Journals and the trial balance come first.
None. It opens at fundamentals and assumes you have never touched a ledger.
Xero and MYOB, plus Excel. Clients turn up on either system, so both are covered.
Eighteen months of access, and about one hundred and forty hours of work.
From $29 a week on a payment plan. Weekly, fortnightly or monthly, or pay upfront. No deposit and no credit check.
Not on this course alone. BAS agent work is regulated, with its own registration and experience rules through the Tax Practitioners Board.
That is the second half. Structures, a plan, marketing, and one to one time with a business coach.
You finish with a Certificate of Achievement, and it is delivered through an accredited training centre of the International Association of Bookkeepers. The college holds ICOES and CPD Standards Office accreditation. It is not a registered training organisation, so the training is not nationally recognised. Small business clients hire on software skill and reliability.
There is a ten day money back guarantee from the college. Ask an advisor how it works first.
The Career Academy is an online college with over fifteen years behind it. It works with more than twenty five thousand students a year. It is a Xero Partner, an MYOB Approved Education Partner and an IAB Accredited Training Provider.
Picture a client list that pays every month without you chasing it.
