I would rate 0 if I could. This course did not cover all the topics on the test. DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE. It is free on intuit academy website. Search that instead. If you fail the test twice they will force you to wait 6 months. DO NOT TAKE, very much a scam by Coursera.

teacher as a cartoon character? terrible voice for the cartoon character? rock music on the background? Really??? It was extremely annoying approach to teach a very interesting subject. I quit this course after like 2 min of watching. Not possible to listen to this.

Appalling narration which speaks to students as if they are little kids. It is so condescending and therefore insulting that it is unwatchable. How can a company like Intuit be associate with something like this. Don't they care anything about their reputation!

The workbook at the final project has so many stupid mistakes, i mean how the@#^&^&* you give me an account payable with a debit balance??

other than that i spend so much time on this course, and i can't finish it.

I will update when the course is complete but so far I am not impressed, the first dozen actions in the course haven't taught a single thing. Just a waste of time "fluff" and I have no extra time for this.

The quiz before the exam had nothing to do with what was published and the material is child-like and silly. Not college material at all. A waste of time.

Garbage. Crappy cartoons with zero information. Then the first actual test is 100% information not covered. At all.

So far a bit immature. Not interested in the format. Not learning anything. Just being entertained by a cartoon.

Went through the whole thing only to find out that if you don't live in the US you can't take the final exam

I failed the Intuit Certified Bookeeping Professional Exam! I was only prepared for the accounting basics.

Left with more questions and confusion than when I entered. This was a total waste of my time and money!

Annoying videos. They can't just teach things, everything has to have a mind-numbing framing device

I,m trying to submit last quiz. it didn't accept my three answers as I;m damn sure it is write.

The cartoon used to present this information is obnoxious. I would not recommend this course.

Very superficial

so light

This is exactly the same material I learned during my first accounting semester at college, a 5 unit course, but for a minuscule fraction of the price. Many people struggled with that class, (hence the 5 units) but if you enjoy real world problems and numbers you'll feel right at home. Expect additional learning outside of coursera, as some questions require it. Lastly, and I can't emphasize this enough; if you haven't fully understood a specific concept, do NOT move on. You MUST understand every concept before moving forward, as almost everything in this course builds upon the previous lesson. I know this may sound obvious, but, unlike with a regular math course, it really helps to picture the problem as you're reading it. Picture the transaction in your mind as you're carrying out the steps to find the solution. Best of luck!

The only assignment that I found confusing, or that I feel may give some students a particularly difficult time, is the second to last assignment, or the "case study" that is required to be completed in order to complete the final quiz. I just found that certain elements were poorly described and not detailed enough. Also, the invoices for the Smiths and the Martins are mixed up: the description says that the Martin's are invoiced for $250 though the General Journal shows $750 and vice versa regarding the Smith family. This greatly confused me for a short while until I took a closer look at the paid invoices at the end of the month. Other than this one technical issue, the course should be smooth sailing for any student as long as they pay attention and read over the material carefully. And TAKE NOTES!

I have applied for the Financial Aid and I want to thank you first for accepting my application. First impression when I started the course, funny. Why? Because Bianca is so awesome and her sense of humor is one of a kind. It helped me feel engaged in the discussions and not get bored. I also like when there's first an issue with Lou, and then Bianca will help him solve it. The most important part were the statement by some experts about certain topics in the course and the discussions after learning new things. Another amazing part of this experience is the walk through in the QuickBooks Online especially that Bookkeepers and Accountant use this software a lot. I may also use my learnings and experience in the future when I apply for a job. I am planning on taking the next 3 courses too.

Overall course was great it had good clear objectives to meet and topics to understand. The final course for bookkeeping basics was very helpful. Attempting to calculate my own values for "Lou" the fictitious client using the chart of accounts, general journal and general ledger to complete values for the income statement was extremely helpful. My suggestion is after a student completes the assignment and also completes the exam related to that assignment, if a student enters a incorrect answer. Show them how to obtain the correct value for those items on the income statement instead of just displaying the correct value because then the student won't see what or how they have calculated incorrectly, it can help prevent future mistakes and give the student a better understanding.

I had basic Accounting knowledge before taking the Intuit Bookkeeping Course. I have learned more about Bookkeeping and Accounting as I take each Course. I am looking forward to completing this course and pursuing a career in bookkeeping. It is challenging and rewarding. I have developed a sense of pride learning this course and I am looking forward to completing Bookkeeping Basics and all courses pertaining to bookkeeping. I feel once I have I will have a lot to offer a business or businesses. Thanks for making this possible without leaving my home and allowing me to learning at my own pace. It really is a pleasure and I am looking forward to completion. Thanks again, for this opportunity!

This is a five star class it is easy to learn of course you will have to take notes, and you can pass it. As long as you invest the time and really focus on the subject. I have taken Accounting one and Accounting two and this course is a brigdge between them because not only does it gives an overview of accounting concepts, but I honestly felt like I was back in my accounting courses. The resources are very helpful. The Quickbook software also added to a rounded foundation in Bookkeeping. I loved this course and I recommend it to everyone. You will not be disappointed!!!!!

First, I would like to thank Coursera for offering us this opportunity to learn the bookkeeping basics.

Second, I am so grateful for Bianca for teaching us with her amazing way. Bianca's efforts pushed me to overcome all the difficulties and gave me the determination to continue and to give my best.

Third, I am impressed by the quality of the information and the whole program. It was really amazing and worth it! especially the quiz and the activities are so interesting

I did not regret enrolling this course and I am looking forward the other courses.

Have a nice day, my teacher. Thank you for this course. This is nice work, teacher! I have completed this course, which is like full gratification! Employers appreciate these kinds of classes and can appreciate what's needed. I have developed during my learning. There is an opportunity to feature this project in my portfolio and add details to illustrate my rational thinking and skills. My recently completed course would look great on my profile. I appreciate you, and I am very grateful for the knowledge that you give to people.

I had a basic understanding of double entry accounting from earlier in my career and had used a different accounting program to do book for a construction company that I owned. This was a terrific course and covered all of the necessary topics to handle the majority of issues that normally arise when preparing company books. I would recommend that anyone interested in pursuing employment as a bookkeeper complete this training as it will ensure that you have the skills needed for the job. C E Smith
