It’s becoming more common for students to learn MYOB AccountRight, MYOB Essentials and Xero so we combined the COMPLETE courses into a bookkeeping COMBO which includes everything, and it’s discounted in price.

20 What if I have a Mac?
We use the Windows version but had many students who have used the Mac equivalent which is MYOB AccountEdge Basic and AccountEdge Pro – THIS ENDED in 2020. Read our blog post about the shock announcement from MYOB because of changes to the Apple IOS operating system.
Mac users have no other option than to
- find a Windows computer to learn AccountRight or
- start using MYOB Essentials which is a cloud based accounting software program which competes with Xero Accounting.
Many job seekers and bookkeepers alike are now taking advantage of the MYOB & Xero TRIO Certificate Training Course to learn skills in all the leading accounting programs in Australia.
Some of our very earliest versions of our video tutorials use Flash which may not be viewable on iPad devices, but all new content is created in a format that is viewable on all platforms.
Back to MYOB Training Courses Summary
21 What if I am based in New Zealand or another country?
Our MYOB training is focused on the Australian version and include information about the GST, BAS and payroll for Australia, but students from Hong Kong, Canada, UK and New Zealand have completed the course? Microsoft Excel training can be used in any country.
Back to MYOB Training Courses Summary
22 Can I buy the MYOB software from you?
No – we no longer sell it. Although we can supply the software to you we are in the training and workplace services industry and would not be competitive in pricing with the large retail discounters like Harvey Norman, Dick Smith Electronics or online comparison sites like Get Price and MyShopping.

If you are an accountant or a training organisation that delivers an accounting qualification from Cert III and up you may be interested in our MYOB Course Enrolment Vouchers.
Back to MYOB Training Courses Summary
25 Do you have courses for other accounting software?
Yes, we do. Our accounting course case studies take students logically through the entire bookkeeping process for a small business and because we create them we can adapt them to suit other accounting software programs, which we’ve done for MYOB’s other small business accounting software, MYOB Essentials.
There are an increasing number of cloud based accounting software programs and many of them are competing head-to-head with MYOB and doing very well.
Xero Accounting is a very popular cloud based accounting software program and boasts Craig Winkler as one of it’s major shareholders. Craig is the man that started MYOB in Australia and built it into an international company before selling out to a private equity company (Archer Capital, which them sold it to another private equity company Bain Capital) and this company had the luxury of starting off as an online, cloud-based accounting software.

We also offer training courses in Intuit QuickBooks Online, Reckon One and have begun creating training content for Sage One.
If you want to learn EVERYTHING we have available about accounting software you need the Bookkeeping Academy COMPLETE Combination Training Course Package.
Back to MYOB Training Courses Summary
26 Can you help me start a business?
Yes.
In 2012 we became the online training platform for the Small Business Management Course from the Australian Small Business Centre Pty Ltd. This course goes through all the areas required to create a business plan which becomes a blue print of how to run a business – any business.
We then had our own team go through this course and complete it based on the following business types: Virtual Assistant and Bookkeeping Business.
When you do the Small Business Management Course with us you get the opportunity to work with people who are doing what you want to do and they’ll support you to help you succeed in that business.

29 What is the cheapest way to learn MYOB?
Several training resources are created to help students learn how to use any software program and they include
- training video tutorials,
- exercise files or case studies to practice with,
- training manuals and workbooks with written instructions on what to do when you’re practising,
- knowledge review test to test that you’ve learnt what is covered in the courses and also confirm that you are competent.
- assignments where you need to go and perform deeper research.
When all the aspects of each course are completed you’ll receive a certificate of completion for that course. The certificate identifies the courses you have successfully completed and the course duration.
Learn more about how we help you learn how to use accounting, office admin and digital marketing.
The most time and effort goes into creating the written workbook and case studies and once the training story has been created we record the video tutorials that demonstrate how to perform each of the tasks and where to enter the data.
The cheapest way to learn MYOB is to buy the MYOB Training Course manual and work through the practical tasks. Training workbooks are available from EzyLearn partners and available here.

31 Can I try before I buy?
YES.
Although we’ve been teaching students how to use accounting and office administration software since 1996 and create our own training materials we’re happy for you to sample our training materials.
We offer several free training resources which you are welcome to access.
We put a lot of information on our website so you have the information in writing and can print it, forward it or save it until you are ready.
Pass it onto your employer or manager or just to do your own comparison and be well informed.
Visit our FREE sample website.
Back to MYOB Training Courses Summary
32 Do your MYOB Courses contain practical exercises?
YES. Our MYOB AccountRight and MYOB Essentials training courses are built by professional educators and in consultation with
- small businesses,
- industry practitioners,
- BAS Agents and Accountants.
We take the transactions which are common, complex or just a pain in the backside to code and put them into the training flow.
Once we select all the different types of transactions that relate to each course topic we build the course out and get you to perform the transaction a couple times and then progress onto more advanced and more complex skills and tasks.
Theory is easy and everywhere but practical exercises are what makes our courses stand out from other courses. Practical exercises increase your confidence in using the software and speaking about it with potential employers or clients.
