Tim Good, one of the country's leading tax presenters, has announced the launch of his latest venture; web based accountancy and tax courses, called Now Training.

Interactive Training

Now training provides interactive computer-based short training courses for the accountancy and tax professions. The first courses launched cover Money Laundering and Entrepreneurs' relief and are proving a big hit with the first users.

“We've had very positive feedback since the launch in September from sole traders through to top 20 firms all equally impressed with what they've seen and used” said Tim Good, co-owner of the business.

“Advisers need products which are quick and easy to use and with costs starting from £19.99 per person they
don't break the bank.”

“Now courses take less than half an hour to run from start to finish and all you need is a computer with internet access to complete them. The flexibility offered is a big plus for the time-pressured professional, advisers should definitely take a look at what we have to offer”.
