NOTE: PARTICIPANTS ARE REQUIRED TO BRING THEIR OWN LAPTOP FOR THIS COURSE.

Overview:

The Digital Accounting course is a hands-on, practical training program designed for individuals with little or no prior accounting experience who want to kick-start a career in accounting and finance. The course bridges the gap between academic concepts and real workplace execution by immersing participants in technology-enabled accounting workflows used in today's organisations.

The program is delivered through guided simulations using a licensed cloud-based accounting system, where participants work as junior accountants inside a simulated business environment. Learners process real-world transactions, apply accounting judgment, and follow professional workflows as practiced in SMEs and growing service, trading, and light manufacturing businesses.

Rather than learning accounting as isolated theory, participants perform end-to-end digital accounting tasks from transaction entry, payroll and tax processing, reconciliations, and inventory management to month-end adjustments, financial reporting, and basic analysis. Structured datasets, role-based tasks, and deliverable-driven assignments ensure that learning is practical, measurable, and immediately applicable.

Participants receive access to a cloud accounting platform (license duration is 6 months) and graduate with the practical competence, system confidence, and professional discipline required to function effectively as entry-level accountants, accounts officers, or finance assistants from day one.

Learning Outcomes:

• Perform end-to-end accounting processes using a cloud-based accounting system, including transaction recording, reconciliations, adjustments, and financial reporting, in line with professional workplace practices.

• Apply accounting judgment within digital systems, demonstrating an understanding of double-entry logic, control accounts, and the limitations of software automation.
