The Business Owner's Accounting Course

A business owners works at his laptop. Accounting is the language of business and the better you understand it, the better business owner you will be. While you don't have to become a certified accountant in order to run a profitable business, you will be more adept at making wise decisions if you understand the financial underpinnings of your business.

That is why Universal Accounting Center designed the Business Owner's Accounting Course. When you take this course you will learn more about profit and loss, debits, credits, margin, and dozens of other key measurements of the financial health of your company. Even if you already have an accountant, the Business Owner's Accounting Course teaches you to read your financial statements. When you know how to interpret the data, you are then in a position to use that data real-time to improve your company's performance.

Get the Data You Need to Make Timely Decisions

You will learn that a knowledge of how to interpret key accounting indicators empowers you to find trends in your business before they become serious problems. A car might have gauges or "idiot lights." Most of us would rather have a fuel indicator than a flashing "out of gas" light that only came on when we actually empty. In much the same way, knowing the status of your cash flow gauges that business metric, and is much better than waiting for the bank to tell you when you have run out of cash.

When you understand the complete financial picture of your company, you are in a position to move up the wisdom pyramid from mere information to knowledge. You will know how to gauge the success of your company, but more importantly, learn to predict the success of future activities. When you have a clear understanding of what is working and what needs attention, you lay the foundation for corrective action. With timely measurement and analysis, with experience, you learn at an intuitive level what corrective measure will work and how well.

Specific Small-Business Financial Analysis

When you take an accounting course in college, their focus is on accounting processes for large corporations, the fortune 500's, which only account for 2% of businesses. They do not teach the practical application of those principles for small to mid-sized businesses. This course shares real-world knowledge you can put to work right away to benefit YOUR organization.

The Business Owner's Accounting Course is the same fundamental training that we teach our students in the Professional Bookkeeper Course. The focus of the Business Owner Edition is to understand the key metrics that your accountant provides; the emphasis is on teaching you the basics.
