“When I applied for my job, the hiring manager asked me questions regarding accounting, like bank reconciliations, balance sheets and other terms. I was able to answer the questions because of the terminology that I learned at DISCOVERBOOKKEEPING."
Diana I., Fall 2008

“It is important to help other people who don’t have the means to go to school…to help them get into the workforce and get a career for themselves.”
Carl M., Fall, 2007

"I would like to continue taking more classes or advanced classes with Mr. Smith. Love the class and the experience. Please give an advanced class for people like me. I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity of bettering myself in a professional and personal level. I would find a better job thanks to you, Mr. Smith. You are my angel.”
Gladys R., Spring, 2009

“Maurice [the instructor] was great and informative. I feel I could call any time if I had questions at work and he always provided me with answers. Maurice and the staff of DISCOVERBOOKKEEPING provided any consultation I needed for both QuickBooks and accounting. I really appreciated how the class wasn’t restricted to the frame of two hours, because it told me that they care. The class wasn’t what I expected, I liked how we had the opportunity to learn other programs besides QuickBooks.

Because I have knowledge in Peachtree and MYOB, I have confidence that if the economy changes directions, I have skills that will always make me an asset to any employer.”
