Description

If you want to own a business one day, take college business courses, or just know how to handle your own personal finances in the future, then accounting is for you! Learning the basics of accounting can help you start and run a business, get a head start in college courses, and teach you how to create a personal budget. In Accounting Applications 1, students will build a broad foundation of knowledge and skills of accounting concepts in order to analyze, classify, and record business transactions in a manual and computerized setting (Excel and QuickBooks); prepare financial statements and communicate information to stakeholders; maintain payroll records, and determine proper handling of cash control procedures. This course will focus on transferable skills in communication, ethics, problem solving, organizational skills, and time management. Throughout the course, students explore the role of accounting in a global economy and develop employability skills such as proper business etiquette, workplace procedures, and customer service skills.
