Description

This Course takes a learner through the process of a bank reconciliation. Mostly it is about performing a bank reconciliation in excel (manual), but the concepts and skills can also be used in performing the same using automated accounting systems. This course serves as a comprehensive framework for bank reconciliation to both existing and upcoming bookkeepers and accountants, entrepreneurs, and lay individuals without any background in accounting and bookkeeping.

I have been working as an Accountant with both local and international NGOs for over 10 years and this course draws inspiration from my 10 year track record.

I will take you through the course step by step explaining each term and concept like explaining to a seven year old. In each module there are downloadable materials mostly in power point. As time goes by, i will be updating this course with new relevant materials especially on automated bank reconciliations.

By the end of the course, participants will have a solid understanding of bank reconciliation best practices, the ability to identify and address reconciling items, and a toolkit of fraud prevention and detection strategies. They will be equipped to implement robust internal controls, mitigate fraud risks, and safeguard their organization's financial resources.
