Bookkeeping is an essential aspect of any business. It involves keeping track of financial records, including purchases, sales, receipts, and payments. However, managing these records can be daunting, especially for those without a background in accounting. That's why taking a bookkeeping course is a wise decision. In this blog post, JB Training Services Inc. will discuss the benefits of taking a bookkeeping course, what you will learn, and how it will help your business. We will also highlight the importance of QuickBooks training and how a bookkeeper in Edmonton can help your business.


Understanding bookkeeping principles: A bookkeeping course teaches you the fundamental principles of bookkeeping, including how to maintain a general ledger, create financial statements, and balance accounts. This knowledge is vital because even if you are using a software program such as QuickBooks, you need to ensure QuickBooks is doing things correctly. There will also be times when you need to apply accounting principals where software programs, including QuickBooks, cannot do it for you.

Developing bookkeeping skills: Through bookkeeping training, you will learn valuable skills that will help you manage your business finances effectively. These skills include data entry, reconciliation, and financial analysis. Additionally, you will learn how to use accounting software such as QuickBooks in an efficient and easy manner, which is essential for managing your finances efficiently.
Saving time and money: By taking a bookkeeping course you can save time and money, and more importantly, set the stage for delegating this chore to someone else in the future. By delegating this task it frees up your time to work on other areas of your business such as sales and production.

Staying compliant with regulations: Most bookkeeping courses don't teach you about government rules and regulations.  However, at JB Training Services Inc., this is one of the key components in our training programs. You'll learn about tax-deductible expenses, GST/HST, and other sales taxes, as well as payroll rules and regulations you need to be aware of. Lack of knowledge in these areas can result in expensive penalties and interest charges.

Importance Of QuickBooks Training
QuickBooks is an accounting software used by many businesses to manage their finances. By taking a QuickBooks training course, you will learn how to use the software effectively and how to customize it for your particular business. This knowledge will help you manage your finances more efficiently, track your expenses, and generate accurate financial reports.

Benefits of Hiring a Bookkeeper in Edmonton
If you're running a business in Edmonton, hiring a bookkeeper can help you manage your finances effectively. However, you want to ensure they are highly trained, and more importantly, that you have the knowledge to DELEGATE - NOT ABDICATE the bookkeeping responsibilities.
Our courses are designed to train you, your staff or independent bookkeepers to do the work properly. We also teach you how to oversee the bookkeeping work to ensure it's accuracy, security and reliability. Hiring a top quality bookkeeper provides you with more opportunity to focus on other important areas of your business growth.


In conclusion, taking a bookkeeping course is an excellent investment for any business owner. It will teach you valuable skills that will help you manage your finances more efficiently, save you time and money, and ensure that you remain compliant with regulations. Additionally, Quickbooks training is the first step towards delegating that job to someone else, freeing you up to work on other important areas of your business.
