The ABC programme is a qualification designed to ensure students obtain a sound knowledge of bookkeeping. This suits a range of staff, whether they wish to progress to further study or just develop their bookkeeping skills in their current role. The ABC package is a self guided interactive package which teaches the essential bookkeeping skills in a flexible and affordable way.

The Finance Training team also provide 6 half day workshops (approximately every 3 weeks at Greenwich House). We help students understand the study modules, provide more practical examples and relate the syllabus to the University context.

Have you ever run a report or a screen enquiry in CUFS and thought it would be exactly what you needed if only ...

it was presented in a slightly different format; it didn't spread out over as many pages; or if it combined with data from elsewhere? Or are you currently re-keying data from CUFS into your own spreadsheets because you don't feel that CUFS can meet your needs?

This programme of three short courses will give you some tips that might make your life easier when trying to extract data from CUFS, working with it in Excel and presenting it as meaningful financial information.

The splitting of the programme into three, two-hour sessions provides an opportunity for users to practice and consolidate their learning in between the events. Whereas Part 3 can be attended at any time, it is recommended that users attend Part 1 before Part 2, as we will be building upon the knowledge of the former in the second stage. However, users may if they prefer to wait a month or so before attending the second session.
