In addition to the ICB General Bookkeeping Level I, II and III assessments (used to verify your competencies in general bookkeeping), ICB now also have available three detailed, task based assessments.
The Level I assessment will require you to set up a manual Cash Accrual system for a company, Level II and III will follow on from this and are delivered in your choice of either an MYOB or QuickBooks datafile.
You will have 30 days to complete each level and we would like to point out that you will be marked on both the questions you will be required to answer online as well as the ‘books’ you produce

$150.00 for non members
You will be required to construct a cash book or use Microsoft Excel and complete the books for a ficticious company using the documents contained in the PDF files which will be sent to you via email.
50% of your mark for this question will be taken from your work constructing the cash book or the excel files, the other 50% is from the answers you provide when completing the online section of this assessment.
You are required to forward the excel spreadsheets or a copy of the cash book to us as soon as you complete this assessment, as this file makes up 50% of your total mark, failure to return the 'cash book' will result in a fail mark being awarded.
