Member Inquiry Our Bookkeeper is looking to obtain more Excel and Accounting

skills, and I’m wondering if I can reach out to our group to see if

anyone has advice. I’ve looked at in-person courses with UVM,

CCV, Champlain and St. Mikes, as well as online options at

SNHU.

However, if anyone has ideas like local training resources, I’m all

ears!

Thank you! Casey Sullivan
