The basis of Accounting is the process of recording, classifying, summarising and analysing transactions (most often in business).
It is about measuring the performance of organisations and communicating that information to people who want or need to know (stakeholders - people who have some interest or share in the organisation). If you are good at Maths, are interested in accountancy
as a career and would like to develop your communication skills then this course will suit you.
