Xero Accounting & Payroll was good; however time sheets should b part of this course as without the weekly/fortnightly actual hours cannot prepare the wages.

A very comprehensive introduction to Xero. The material presented was very clear and easy to understand.

Finally I have a decent blue print of Xero in my head!! Making a lot more sense…. Janelle very clear and concise.

A very enjoyable training course, comprehensive information for Xero was provided and I feel far more confident at being able to switch programs and setup everything that I need to correctly the first time. Questions were answered with great information from Janelle who also ensured the class stayed on track so the whole course program was covered. Highly recommended.

Amanda G (verified owner) –
Thank you Janelle and the team at Applied Education. I really enjoyed the course, it was very professionally run with each person having access to a computer with Xero. Janelle is a great trainer and very knowledgable in bookkeeping and Xero. I enjoyed learning about the payroll component and have been able to apply the skills learnt during training to my business. The course included morning and afternoon tea as well as a lunch voucher. I was very impressed by the quality of coffee, tea and lunch selection. The facilities were very clean and well maintained. I look forward to doing further training down the track with Applied Education.
Rachael Andrews (verified owner) –

Peter –
Good content, however was a little rushed towards the end. Will need to review course book.
A Kemp (verified owner) –
Good course – looking fwd to the advanced course. Course did presume bookkeeping knowledge.
Caroline –
I found the pace of the training day too fast for someone with no prior knowledge, the day felt very rushed and I struggled to keep up with the activities. I was challenging to have time to write notes. AS a business owner the payroll element was not relevant to my needs so I would recommend having a half day course for business owners without staff with more focus on invoicing, purchase orders etc as this was too rushed for a beginner. I felt that most people were users and a class for beginners would be very welcome. The trainer was extremely knowledgeable but I felt that personally I gained very little for a full day course.
Brooke Cooper –
I had never seen or used Xero previously and found today’s course insightful and in a content easily followed that I can confidently go away using Xero. Thanks Janelle
