Beginning Bookkeeping Mini Course
This Bookkeeping Mini Course's primary purpose is to deliver focused, quick, and actionable learning about beginning bookkeeping. Instead of the time needed to complete my normal tutorials, this tutorial can be completed in a lot less time, approximately an hour. Keeping current with technology, this course was created using Google's Gemini AI.
Use this course to brush up or at least get familiar with what bookkeeping is all about. Then, if you want or need to continue learning about bookkeeping, check out my regular tutorials and courses.
The course is made up of ten lessons and an appendix. Each lesson except the review section has a ten question quiz to test what you now know. The review section lesson 10 contains two videos to refresh what you should now know. The Appendix defines common accounting and bookkeeping terms. Lastly you have a final exam.
Note: You have to complete and pass all the quizzes in order to be able to take the final exam.
