What our students say
★★★★★ “I loved the fact that I could do the course in my own time (even though it means I have to motivate myself to study..) It is great not having to be physically present at night classes. In terms of the resources, the forums were really useful as I could see previous responses to content I am currently working on. Everything was easy to access and complete. I would recommend The Career Academy to anyone!” – Joanne Gallagher

The course is perfect – I loved the flexibility of study
Sarah Smits –
The website is very professional and informative. Great variety of courses at reasonable prices. The reviews were positive and mostly 4-5 star rating. The exercise instructions were very clear, however there were two(2) areas that were not for me. Pay Bills – The wording regarding making a payment to the Purchase:Awaiting Payment for Swanston Security was confusing i.e. appeared to be instructions for creating a Bill. BAS Report – It was difficult to Publish a Business Activity Statement that was not in the standard quarters. The 3 month period I was instructed to use was from "1 May 2017 to 31 Jul 2017" and the software would not accept the dates, and repeatedly tried to revert to an IAS rather than a BAS. When I entered the standard quarter 1 Jul 2017 to 30 Sep 2017 the report would publish correctly.
Sheryl Benington –
The information was very helpful but not always tailored to a service providing business rather than a sales type company. More specific service related only info would be a help. Thanks!
Amanda Jones –
I found the tutors really helpful and all of the information was relevant!
Bianca Du Plessis –
I like my course a lot, I find the tutors on most of the subjects very helpful. It would be better when an assessment is wrong if they could give more explanation on what is wrong, especially if a few attempts have been made.
Marinelle Jane Colindres –
My course is very hard, but I am coping and learning at my own pace. It is very challenging. Sending my assignments is nerve-wrecking. I am very thankful of the tutors because they are guiding me in the right direction. Thank you.

I am thoroughly enjoying my course. It is intensive but done in such a way as not to be overwhelming. The turnaround from submitting assignments and getting them back is fantastic, often in the same day! The tutors are really positive with their feedback and always manage to give me a great confidence boost. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone interested in getting a book keeping qualification.
Bianca –
I like my course alot, I find the tutors on most of the subjects very helpful. It would be better when an assessment is wrong if they could give more explanation on what is wrong, especially if a few attempts have been made, the question in topic 5.2 could also be alot clearer.

Finding time to study is the most difficult. The feedback from the tutors on my assignments is always very helpful. The content of the course is absolutely above average.
Nancy Wu –
Still working through the course. The first part of the course was very interesting, I enjoyed it a lot. The second part is less interesting to me but I’m still working through. The main reason I signed up for this course is to become more confident in bookkeeping and to increase my knowledge for my career.
Nicole George –
It is very interesting and I seem to be grasping it quite well. The tutors are lovely, very prompt as well.
Julanne Frecklington –

I find it really interesting. I have a certificate in MYOB already so I really enjoy gaining some more experience and practice in bookkeeping. It’s a very valuable course and the tutors are rather prompt.
Anonymous –
The course was good, very informative. Brendan was amazing tutor and very helpful. The first part of the course was good but struggling to stay motivated for the second part. Course and tutors would get a 4/5, but finding a job in the field would get a 3/5.
Gayleen Sime –
I have to say, I am really happy with this course. The marking has been done really quickly by the tutors and they always give positive feedback. If there’s anything I need to have a look at they always get back to me about it. Definitely impressed with what I’ve done so far.
Kim Angela Rennie –
This course is great for me because I really enjoy this sort of thing. I have some experience in basic accounting principles but there’s a ton of new info in here on bookkeeping to learn which is great. It’s really good to learn some new bits and pieces, and to be able to use this knowledge in the future for career advancement.
Sheemal Prasad –
This is a refresher course for me and I’m enjoying it fine so far – it’s good to go back to the basics and brush up on some information.
Renell Olivier –
I always get a reply when I call in for help, I find everything is going really well and the bookkeeping program is good!
Louise Pearce –
I like it so far. In terms of difficulty the course content is a mixture – some of it is a bit more challenging because it’s new concepts, but it’s well written and explained so it’s easy to understand.
Shelley Jenkins –
The feedback given to me by the tutors has been helpful, I really like how they marked my assignment on the weekend so I can take the week to go back and see what I did correctly and what I need to work on.
Rose Faulkner –
Great course, tutors are helpful.
Annette Jamison –
The textbook that came with the course is very good despite the text and the size of it being very tiny. The course is revisiting things that I’ve done previously and it’s turning out to be simpler than I expected.
Kim Hetherington –
The course is going well. One suggestion I would make is more consistency in the markings; sometimes tutors will give different feedback. The content is a bit more challenging than what I thought, not coming from that background, but it’s pretty interesting.
Coral Kaumoana –
I have found the course really good and the support has always been reliable.
Amelia Hastings –
Really loving what I’ve done so far!
