We’re excited to announce the launch of Gooding Training Academy, a specialist accountancy training facility right here in the heart of Wiltshire.
History
Gooding Accounts (one of the largest Accountancy Practices in Wiltshire) have long been passionate about providing outstanding internal training for their employees. Gooding Accounts Training Manager and Chartered Accountant, Sam Bates, is thrilled to expand the training centre with a vision to provide excellent face-to-face accountancy training courses to businesses and individuals across the South West.

Why Gooding Training Academy is different
Here at GT Academy we believe that training should be rooted in the real-world. Our training team all still work in practice, allowing them to bring active case-studies into the classroom allowing you to translate your training directly into the workplace and giving our candidates a head-start for their future careers in accountancy.
We understand that different ways of learning suit different individuals. Our collaborative small group sessions have a maximum of 10 learners, with individuals encouraged to ask as many questions as possible to help them get to grips with the course content. We offer a flexible and relaxed learning environment with our team on-hand to mentor and support learners to be the very best they can be.

We currently offer QuickBooks and Dext training courses, with many more coming online over the next few months. If you’re interested in singing up for one of our courses just drop us a message at hello@gtacademy.org.uk or give us a call and one of our team will be in touch to discuss your requirements and make sure the qualification is right for you.
