THE ACCOUNTINGHUB ACADEMY
PRESENTS A 20-CLASSES COURSE : BECOMING THE IDEAL WORKPLACE ACCOUNTANT
Who we are
Accountinghub is Nigeria’s small business accountant. A tech-accounting firm, launched in January 2016, to serve small businesses in Nigeria.
Offering five core services (Bookkeeping, Tax/Payoll, Accounting software, Stocktaking and Accounting process improvements), Accountinghub grew very fast and has since inception served over 500 businesses.
A 2016 Tony Elumelu entrepreneur-business, winner of several awards and Nigeria’s leading adviser to Sage, for the Sage cloud accounting business software, Accountinghub soon became a household name amongst Nigerian small businesses.
What is the Ideal-Workplace-Accountant Course about?
Imagine you resume work today as an accountant in a HR Consulting firm, your role would cover the following:
- Raise and send invoices to clients
- Receive payments and issue Receipts
- Manage the petty cash
- Calculate and file the taxes
- Spend time with the auditors at year end doing the statutory audit
- Prepare a budget for each training and even for the year
- Make postings into an accounting software
- Perform bank reconciliations monthly
- Make payments to facilitators who handled your trainings as well as payment for other expenses
- Prepare payroll for the organization
- Recover debts from owing clients
- Manage the assets or the company by maintaining proper asset listing and depreciation schedules
- Write up simple policies and processes to guide the way that the accounting function works
- Attend tax audits and defend the company when the tax man raises questions and
- finally generate several and multiple kinds of reports for management.
All these are several more, the course teaches.
The Course prepares you to walk into an SME business, grab a seat as the accountant and perform adequately well.
It is the very practical training course that helps you bridge the gap that you could not obtain from work experience.
For non-accountants who are seeking to build a career and skill in the accounting field, the Course is a great way to build your interest and spur you to become a professional accountant by seating and passing the professional examinations.
Imagine the beauty of resuming at the workplace as an accountant, you arrive with great skill, you hit the ground running immediately.
You would be likened to a plug-and-play accountant; the perfect dream of every employer.
Why the Course?
We found the need to teach the kind of accounting required in the workplace for several reasons:
1. Accountants kept reaching out, asking to be trained.
2. SMEs kept reaching out asking to assist with recruitment of accountants; a service we do not currently offer.
3. We found a huge gap in the availability of skilled accountants to meet the needs of the growing numbers of SMEs in Nigeria.
4. The professional accounting bodies are excellent preparatory grounds for an accountant. The Accountant who adds practical skills and technology to his professional certificate, soon becomes highly sought.
Why us?
Working with loads of SMEs, we have developed an usual skill to simplify seemingly complex things. Little wonder several small businesses come to our social media pages to learn and understand accounting and tax matters, which they would ordinarily find as difficult to understand.
We continually invest a lot of time, in finding easier ways of connecting with small business owners and people who need to learn accounting and taxes.
