By the end of the training, attendees will have set up an individualized company file for their company which they will be able to import to their own business computer system. Evlyn Carlile, of Simple Office Solutions, will present the training using Premier QuickBooks 2009, but files may be imported to any 2009 QuickBooks version, including the free download SimpleStart, available at http://quickbooks.intuit.com/product/accounting-software/free-accounting-software.jsp
