Southwestern Oregon Community College’s Small Business Development Center (Southwestern SBDC) is pleased to offer a simplified bookkeeping workshop in North Bend. Businesses measure their success by how well they are doing financially. Taxes are prepared based on the profits or losses from the business. Most small business owners know little about accounting or setting up a bookkeeping system that works. In this workshop participants will learn how to establish a basic, cash basis recordkeeping system that is goof-proof. Our instructor, Michael Gordon is a CPA who has been providing accounting and tax services since 1978. He started his accounting career with the CPA firm of Arthur Andersen. He is a recognized national seminar speaker. With his experience as an accountant, a business owner, trainer and a tax advisor he has unique qualifications to assist the small business community. Previous workshop attendees have commented how much they learn from Mike Gordon and how understandable he makes their record keeping process. A fee of $45 per person will be charged. Seating is very limited, only the first 25 registrations will be accepted. Preregistration at www.BizCenter.org is required to insure seating availability and materials. The workshop will be held in North Bend at The Business Center, 2455 Maple Leaf from 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm on Monday, October 3, 2016.
