A very informative day. Great set up and the whole process allows us to understand why it is important to learn from the beginning. Gordon explain heaps of different situations which allow me to have confidence in the future.
The course is fantastic! Really will walk you through Xero Payroll even if you have no prior knowledge even on Xero, Jeff will guide you along the way! He is very thorough about the course and really accomodated each and everyone of our concerns and queries. Thank you so much!
1. It went through valuable knowledge of where to find relative regulations regarding payroll in Australia so that whoever is new to the roll can have a gist of the context. 2.All questions have been well answered either on the go or at the end of the session. 3.Mockup data are well prepared so that students can upload to the Demo company file to have a play.

It was alot of information and what i find the most helpful is the take home manual, so i can go back over the work learnt
Very good experience with Marie. i learnt a lots of thing from her. i really very appreciated .Thank you Marie.
The course provided a clear and practical overview of how to manage payroll using Xero. I now feel confident in processing pay runs, setting up employees, and staying compliant with Fair Work and ATO requirements. The instructor was engaging and explained complex payroll legislation in simple terms, which made it easier to understand the ‘why’ behind each task. Clear, concise, and professional delivery – it’s evident the trainer has hands-on payroll experience. The course struck a good balance between theory and practical use of Xero
