Program: Accounting Clerk

Accounting clerks are an organization’s financial record keepers. They update and maintain accounting records, including expenditures, receipts, accounts payable and receivable, and profit and loss. They have a wide range of skills and knowledge from full-charge bookkeepers who can maintain an entire company’s books to account clerks who handle specific accounts. All accounting clerks make lots of computations each day and use computers more and more to calculate and record data. The TATC Accounting Clerk program provides you with the business and accounting skills you need for a job doing accounting tasks in a variety of organizational settings.
