In addition, you require one of the following browsers: Internet Explorer® 6.x - 8.x, FireFox™ 2.x - 3.x, Google Chrome™ 1.x, Safari® 1.x - 4.x and Adobe® Flash® Player 9+ for certificate functionality.
Online courses are ideal to learn new material at a pace that you determine. Each course can be viewed for 6 months, giving you plenty of time to review the topics in the course. These learning courses contain software demonstrations, simulations,review quizzes and include step-by-step instructions on how to perform most of the topics learned in the course. While viewing our anytime/anywhere learning courses, you can select which topic to view and you can pause and resume the course at anytime.

Will I be able to talk to the teacher during an online QuickBooks course?

Will I receive any additional support materials with my QuickBooks course?
Yes. You will have the ability to download a PDF document with step-by-step instructions on how to perform most of the QuickBooks procedures taught in the online training course. If you purchase the Learn QuickBooks course, you will also receive a QuickBooks student software download to continue to practice at home.
What is a simulation and how is it used in the course?
We know that most students learn by “doing”; therefore, we have developed training simulations. They are computer-based training modules that allow you to try some of the procedures taught in the course. Each simulation is narrated and tells you exactly what to do, followed by a non-audio simulation that makes you think about what you should do. We recommend that you follow the narrated simulation first, before attempting the non-audio simulation. Various simulations are available in each course.
When I purchase an online QuickBooks course, how many people can attend?
When you purchase an online QuickBooks course, you are purchasing a licence for one person. You must purchase a session for each individual participant. If you want multiple users to view an online QuickBooks course, please contact OnPoint Software Training Solutions Inc to discuss a possible site license arrangement.
Do I still need an accountant, bookkeeper or other professional to help me with my own accounting records after viewing an online QuickBooks course?
Yes. Since OnPoint Software Training Solutions Inc courses do not deal directly with specific and individual requirements, it is recommended that students obtain the necessary advice from an accountant, employer, QuickBooks® ProAdvisor® or other such appropriate expert with regards to their specific requirements or guidelines.
