“We’re calling it our Jammin’ June Special,” commented Andrea Crews, Senior Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor.  “Each June, we go to Bonnaroo™ to unwind in the hot Tennessee sun and enjoy an array of musical artists.  With this relaxed spirit in mind, we decided to share our On Demand QuickBooks™ training course with everyone.”   Crews is also the Video Instructor. 

This convenient and comprehensive self-study course permits a student to learn at his or her own pace whenever they have time and wherever they have an internet connection.   An on-line student creates a user name and password to view more than seventy-five (75) high quality flash video lessons.  In addition, there is a companion guide and a sample QuickBooks™ data file to use with each exercise.  Topics range from set up to customization of the software’s numerous features.

“We debuted our On Demand QuickBooks™ training course in early 2010.  People have different learning styles:  hearing, seeing, or doing.  For example, a student may decide to download a chapter in the handbook and try the exercises on his or her own.  If that student gets stuck, he or she can watch the corresponding flash video for the correct procedure and QuickBooks™ keystrokes,” commented Mark Crews, Producer and Senior Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor.

Many non-profits and small business owners don’t have the internal resources to effectively manage their books.  Some have down-sized forcing a family member or other employee to be the bookkeeper.  Not only will the On Demand QuickBooks™ training course provide these new users with a good foundation, it answers very common problems and questions.  Confidence plus control equals happy bookkeepers and business owners.

LaCrews Bookkeeping is staffed with Certified QuickBooks™ ProAdvisors and has taught QuickBooks™ classes for the Small Business Development Center.  They help small businesses and non-profits get the most out of QuickBooks™.  For their free on-line, On Demand QuickBooks™ training course, call LaCrews Bookkeeping at (434) 326-4112, toll-free at (877)  528-2560, or visit www.LaCrews.com.
