Overview:

Fear of accounting often stems from not understanding the basics. Without knowing the difference between a debit and a credit-or how they flow into the income statement and balance sheet-you might miss opportunities to ask smart questions, flag errors, or explain financial issues to stakeholders. Worse, you might make decisions that unintentionally hurt your budget or your department's performance.

This training session is designed to eliminate that uncertainty. We’ll start at square one, explaining accounting concepts in plain English. You’ll learn how to record basic transactions, how the “double-entry” system works, and how financial statements are built. With hands-on examples and relatable scenarios, we’ll make accounting feel accessible and even a little fun.

Don’t let lack of accounting knowledge limit your potential. Join this session and gain the confidence to work with financial information, participate in budget conversations, and ask the right questions when it matters most.

Why should you Attend: Do you find yourself confused by financial reports, unsure about terms like “debit” and “credit,” or hesitant to engage in budget discussions because accounting feels intimidating? You’re not alone. Many professionals-even those in management-avoid the topic of accounting out of fear they’ll sound uninformed or make costly mistakes.

But here’s the truth: accounting is not just for CPAs. Every team-whether in operations, HR, marketing, or customer service-impacts the numbers, and understanding those numbers is essential. If you’ve ever looked at a financial statement and wondered how it all fits together, this session is for you.

Areas Covered in the Session:

  • What accounting is and why it matters to non-financial professionals
  • The basic accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Equity
  • Introduction to debits and credits: What they really mean
  • The double-entry system explained in plain English
  • How to record basic transactions (journal entries)
  • Understanding general ledger accounts and trial balances
  • Overview of the three core financial statements

Who Will Benefit:
  • Anyone that works in a Financial Institution
