Description
This is an introductory basic course for non finance people who are looking to learn the fundamentals of book keeping and accountancy. This course explains what is a business cycle, how does one create a chart of account, what is a trial balance, what is a Balance Sheet and how does one account for expenses with simple examples.
This basic course intends to cover the fundamentals of book keeping and accountancy. In this course, I take the student through the Golden rules of accounts, explain the business cycle and how the accounting is done and closing with the Financial Statements.
Accountancy is an important subject but lot of people fear learning and working in this area. So my intension is to make accounting simple and easy to understand for everyone. And this is the first step to get introduced to the world of accountancy and finance. With no prior accounting knowledge too, once can easily understand these fundamental concepts easily. Once the basic concepts are clear, next step will be to take up the advance course which covers the entire business cycle along with the financial statements with actual case study.
I wish this course will help you get started and feel more comfortable in the world of accountancy and finance.
Who this course is for:

Instructor
I am an accountant by education with about 25 years of work experience, most of it has been in the IT industry.
In the IT industry, most of the people who join are majorly from an engineering or a software back ground, the developers are not aware of the business cycle or the accounting structure. so initially I started to take this basic courses for new comers to train them and explain them the business and also the accounting. They found it very helpful and it also helped the companies as the people had a broader view.
This training was conducted in all the companies I worked with and then with the current situation, had to do this online. This gave me an idea to reach out to a broader audience.
Being a Finance consultant, I have seen various kind of businesses all across the world, but the one common thing among all the businesses across all the countries is the Basic or fundamentals of Book keeping and accountancy. Since I have seen so many types of companies, my experience has also grown and the exposure that I have now, has made me a better teacher.
I have tried and simplified the way we look at Finance and hope you would find that too.
