‘Finding training resources for bookkeepers is a challenge surprisingly. The courses Leaine has created through Smart Books are awesome! I’m able to outsource some of the training and professional development needs of my bookkeeping team by having them sign up to the Smart Books courses. The content and quality of the courses are amazing and my team get a lot from each course they complete.’

'I thoroughly enjoyed testing my knowledge. The lessons and videos were informative, well presented and clear. I enjoyed taking the quizzes at the end of each lesson and the final assessment. Thanks Leaine!'
