"I think BIA is a great way of learning and the staff are so helpful and supportive at all times, this includes Dennis who was also great help. I enjoyed the course and hope that it goes nation wide and provides good bookkeepers to the industry, and the ATO." Jyoti

WHY Choose the Bookkeeping Institute of Australia?

Do you want to be a Bookkeeper or a BAS Agent?

If the answer is YES you have come to the right place

The Bookkeeping Institute of Australia is the only Registered Training Organisation in Australia providing a total 360 pathway for new bookkeepers to becoming BAS Agents under the new law - which will receive Royal Assent in January 2010.

Under the new regulatory regime for the registration of BAS agents, which will commence on 1 March 2010, bookkeepers must be registered in order to provide BAS agent services for a fee or to "engage in other conduct connected with providing such services."

However in order to register, a bookkeeper must hold a Certificate IV in Financial Services (Bookkeeping), or higher, and have undertaken at least 1,400 hours of relevant experience in the past 3 years.

The Bookkeeping Institute of Australia will not only enable you to obtain the nationally recognised Certificate IV in Financial Services (Bookkeeping) but through our partnership with tax agent ABN BAS you will also be able to provide BAS agent services for a fee while gaining your 1,400 hours for registration as a BAS Agent in your own right.

Don't be fooled by other uninformed training organisations into thinking that all you need is a Cert IV or that experience working as an employee will count against the 1,400 hours. The only experience that will count are BAS services performed under the "supervision and control of a tax agent registered under the Act or a BAS agent registered under the Act." ABN BAS qualify as such an agent and your experience will count.

The Bookkeeping Institute of Australia is also the only training provider to offer you the choice of taking our total 360 pathway Certificate IV in Financial Services (Bookkeeping) or our more comprehensive BI-580 Start Your Own Bookkeeping Business Program which is designed to help bookkeepers wanting to start their own BAS and Bookkeeping business.

 
   
 
 

 

 

Founded as a bookkeeping and consultancy business in 2001 the Bookkeeping Institute of Australia (BIA)  is now the leading provider of Bookkeeping training courses in Australia with a reputation for providing high quality teaching and course material that enables our students to achieve a successful outcome.

Unlike other RTO's and TAFE's who deliver a large variety of training courses - from art to hairdressing - the Bookkeeping Institute of Australia is focused on bookkeeping, and only bookkeeping. 

 

The Bookkeeping Institute of Australia is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) registered under the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF). Our national provider code is 32190.

As an RTO our graduates can be assured that our Certificate IV course is nationally recognised.

Our mission is to provide superior quality training and support for Australian Bookkeepers and Office Professionals.
