This course is great for anyone going into bookkeeping or opening a business themselves. Lynn gives great examples of real business situations and she thoroughly explains how to record entries related to everyday business activities.

General and brief case study, easy enough to follow. Good overview of T-accounts, debit and credit idea, as well as basic BS understanding. I would make labor part a little bit more detailed, but it was good for an overview.

Overall a pretty smooth course. The case study was a bit confusing. I'd suggest the case study be presented differently. Perhaps a template and the facts in a printable form. Challenging.

I am looking for some bookkeeping exercise resources which I can use to practice my bookkeeping skills. An exercise where I would record journal entries, ledger, balance sheet, income statement, etc. I have finished the course, but I would like to put what I have learned into practice. Something beyond what was provided in this course. Any ideas? Thanks!
There are numerous resources on the web I hesitate to recommend anything specific because there are some that may help you in your industry better I would just google “bookkeeping resources” or if you maybe are in a certain sector like not for profit you can add that to your search Good luck
