Access Accounting partners with ICAEW IT Faculty for Excel roadshows
Press Release - Friday, September 28, 2007
Business and accounting software vendor Access Accounting has joined forces with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) to support its series of 11 roadshows. The IT Faculty Autumn Roadshow 2007, which commences on 3rd October in London, will provide practical courses on getting the best from spreadsheets.
Dr Paul Booth, technical and development manager at the ICAEW’s IT Faculty, commented, “Excel is still a firm favourite with the finance function for analysing, manipulating and presenting data so the two courses have been designed with this in mind. Getting the data from the system by importing from or linking to the accounting solution is something that Access Accounting appreciates only too well. We are delighted that they have chosen to support us.”
The courses will provide valuable experience of working with data using Excel functions as well as more advanced techniques for analysis and interactive reporting.
Mark Fermor, dealer sales manager for Access Accounting, commented, “Partnering with the ICAEW is a natural choice for us. We understand that Excel is an essential everyday tool for analysing data and producing reports on demand – these courses will help empower finance staff to get the most from spreadsheets, putting them firmly in the driving seat.”
