In this current complicated economic climate the accountancy profession is expected to advise in all areas of taxation, audit and accounts and company law. I trust that the courses detailed in this brochure will meet your 2012 training requirements. In some cases, as noted in the course outlines, the precise content cannot be determined until nearer the time of the presentation. If you have any requirements for specific topics do let me know and please use the course assessment forms for suggestions – the Offa Group exists to serve the small and medium sized accountancy practice.

Despite increasing costs the Group has decided to hold its prices for 2012 with half day courses remaining at £80 plus VAT. Lunch is provided for those attending morning and afternoon sessions.

Many of our regular excellent and popular lectures are returning in 2012 together with new lecturers to cover topics specifically requested. In particular, we are pleased to welcome Julie Butler, an expert in farming matters. We have introduced an IT course, providing a hands-on practical session and a staff course on communication skills to extend into new areas.

If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact me either by phone or e-mail.
