The course was set up very well but, I would have just preferred to have some sort of workbook that allowed us practice with every aspect of documentation. Repetition makes me better.Thank you.

The course covered exactly the bookkeeping basics and it gets to the point where you can do bookkeeping for potential clients or get hired as a bookkeeper with no experience. Thank Coursera.org!
