[@marlooostmeyer2778]

My husband and I are just at the very beginning stages of learning bookkeeping. What you have shared in this video and all of the links you have provided as well is an amazing resource. Thank you so much for all of the hard work you put into putting this together for others. It is so truly appreciated!!!

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Thanks for watching! Krista (FinePoints Admin)

[@cindymartin4239]

This was perfectly timed in my KZbin feed. I was looking for something just like this. Thank you! Time to shake the dust off the old AAS in accounting and quickbooks skills and make some changes

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Glad you enjoyed this video! Hope all goes well with getting your ProAdvisor certification! Krista (FinePoints Admin)

[@UnsalIop]

hi, I am confused whether I should go for "QuickBooks Pro Advisor" or "QuickBooks Certified User" certification. To give you context, I have just completed my diploma in business accounting and trying to get all the skills to be AR/AP Clerk or similar roles. I want to get the certification which makes my CV more competitive and relevant, please advise.

[@anturathi4919]

Hey Morgan, I am from Canada and I want to do this certification but in my QB account there is no option for Pro-Advisor tab.

[@MYKamensky]

Fantastic resource. Can you please repost Margy's coupon code? I couldn't find it.

[@braulioramirez1658]

Thank you! This came across my feed at the right time.

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

You are so welcome!

[@RedenVPerez]

Hello. Mine doesn't show the exam sections but just 3 courses - Bookkeeper, QB Online certification Level 1 and 2. May I ask why is that? Just like when clicking Training - I'd be redirected to a site (ProAdvisor Academy) and shows those three.

[@RedenVPerez]

Oooh, I think i found it. Thank you. The UI really differs.

[@NicolesChicCorner]

My QB ProAdvisor completely changed a few weeks ago, it is not the same format as it used to be as you have here in your video. All of my training courses I completed got erased and it’s all completely different courses. Did this happen to anyone else?

[@SophiaDevrie]

This happened to me! It honestly sucked having to restart everything. 😢😂

[@loganbrown463]

Yes, this also happened to me. I was on the phone with QB customer support to try to figure out what happened and they told me that the Training experience changed back in October. I completed the entire course and was taking practice questions to prepare for the exam and that's when it changed to ProAdvisor Academy. They didn't save anyone's progress so I have to re-do all of the modules. They said they sent an email out, but I couldn't find one.

[@EdSweeden]

Yes, It updated and changed, making this video outdated even as it came out it seems

[@kthjjk163]

​@loganbrown463 do I need to make an account under ProAdvisor Academy to get certifications? Thanks

[@heidicowan6142]

This was really helpful! Thank you!

[@jaclyn1755]

Hi, do you know if the tests have time limits?

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Yes, you have 2 hours to complete the exam. Krista (FinePoints Admin)

[@jaclyn1755]

@FinePointsBookkeeping thank you & happy holidays 🌟

[@earlj.d.6285]

Would you recommend this route over the Coursera course?

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

I haven't heard the best things about it, honestly. I haven't taken it though...

[@yeahexceptno]

the coursera one is a waste of time and energy.

[@HarpreetKaur-gk9gb]

Hey there, could you please assist me how can i start my journey in this feild , beacuse i already done with all quick book programe and have accounting strong background from back country . i looking for start up my business in canada now so how can i have my first client ??

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Hey! Morgan has lots of great resources for someone who wants to start a bookkeeping business. Here is a link to her start a bookkeeping business checklist: finepoints.newzenler.com/f/start-a-bookkeeping-business-checklist-1 Morgan also has several YT videos on how to get clients. I'll link a couple of them below: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKPVfIiPqrKGd5Y kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGqVdXWBbsmVgqM Krista (FinePoints Admin)

[@sushilchhetri6595]

I have completed my QuickBooks online via Universal Classes. I am looking for job since two weeks but nobody responded til today. I have even I will work for free but the same. I have no Bookkeeping job experience in USA. Can you advise me? I am looking for experience in the field

[@lakeisharansom3046]

I know, this seems to be a big glitch in the idea. No one wants to hire you without a minimum of 2 to 3 years of experience

[@sushilchhetri6595]

@lakeisharansom3046 is there any way that I can get experience. I am ready to volunteer as well. 😢

[@PaulElmont-fd1xc]

Would you recommend becoming a tax preparer first, then a bookkeeper?

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Hey! Morgan isn't a tax preparer, but becoming a bookkeeper doesn't require any certifications, so it's definitely easier to become a bookkeeper. It really depends on what you want to focus on first. Krista (FinePoints Admin)

[@PaulElmont-fd1xc]

​@@FinePointsBookkeepingThank you very much!

[@liedobacelar6685]

Thank you! Very good hes contents.

[@multiprintmarketing]

As of Dec 22, interface looks a little different. No big deal, just an FYI,

[@UTubePhoenix]

QB training modules are very convoluted. Did you record this before their November 2024 update? When I open training it forces me to a separate ProAdvisor Academy window which has similar options but makes it seem like it’s QB for seniors… large font and everything spread out. Honestly it looks like a downgrade from what’s on your video.

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Oh man, they are always making changes. I will take a look...

[@UTubePhoenix]

@@FinePointsBookkeeping You mentioned a QB class by "Marge" or "Morgan"(?) in the video, which link will get me there?

[@elizabethvela8418]

I feel like this new pro advisor academy they have for their new training process is way better it’s more complex and detailed than the other modules!!

[@SimonTeng-k8k]

Well. Apparently It was not free when I tried to sign up. You will need to sign up for one of the subscription package to access the training and other stuff.

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Hey! You do not need to sign up for a QuickBooks subscription. You will want to sign up for a free QuickBooks Accountant account. Here is a link to the website: c1.qbo.intuit.com/ Krista (FinePoints Admin)

[@KaylaAnderson-w7i]

@@FinePointsBookkeeping This is what I'm seeing as well. I was prompted to purchase a subscription when asked to create an account. Could this have changed now requiring purchase?

[@camp-vic6622]

❤Your videos often feel a bit too rushed. The pacing is so quick that, more than once, I’ve found myself unaware that the video has ended until it’s already over. While the fast pace can be exciting, it can also leave viewers feeling like they didn’t get a chance to fully absorb the information. Additionally, the speed at which you speak makes it harder to follow along, especially when you’re packing in a lot of details. Slowing down just a little and allowing for more pauses could help viewers keep up better and engage more deeply with the content. It’s important to strike a balance between energy and clarity, and at times, it feels like you might be prioritizing speed over the audience’s ability to fully grasp what’s being said.

[@sarala1jan]

Click on top right Corner and click star looking shape on playback speed..you can make the video go slower or even faster

[@accounting_and_tax]

Apparently if you don't live in the us u can't take it

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Hi! Unfortunately, the QBO ProAdvisor training and certification is only offered is select countries. Krista (FinePoints Admin)

[@Domega05]

They updated the training layout. It looks different than what you are showing in the video.

[@FinePointsBookkeeping]

Morgan is looking into this, thank you for letting us know! Krista (FinePoints Admin)
