Bookkeepers Bootcamp: AI, EOFY, Pay Day Super & AML

📅 Throughout March 2026 | 📍 Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney & Brisbane

Regardless of whether you use MYOB, Xero, Reckon, Intuit or any other accounting software,
this event is for you!

Join ICB and delivery partner MYOB throughout March 2026 for practical working groups across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide & Perth. This is a hands-on, bring-your-own-device workshop series for working bookkeepers. You will build real workflows using the latest AI tools, such as Chat GPT, workshop case studies with peers, and leave with templates you can use immediately.

What to bring: Laptop + charger, access to recommended tools, sample client scenarios (de-identified).

You’ll get: 5.5 hours CPE, peer problem-solving, accountability, and practical resources.

Secure your seat!

This is the AI + EOFY intensive bookkeepers have been waiting for – independent, practical, and built for those who want to lead, not follow. Led by industry experts, this event is built to get you ready to tackle EOFY, using AI in practical, real-world ways to make that work faster and easier.

Across the day you will get:

  • Practical updates and an approach to the worlds of Pay Day Super and AML, as deadlines are fast approaching.
  • Move beyond “What is AI?” to “How do I use it safely and professionally in my practice?”
  • Get practical, guided workflows for EOFY that you can use immediately with your own tools and tech stack.
  • Workshop real-world scenarios through expert panels, case studies and working groups — not just theory.
  • Use your own device to build and pressure-test time-saving AI workflows alongside experienced peers.
  • Explore how to use AI to market and engage with clients, and even start shaping your own AI agent for your practice.

How to talk about AI tools

To participate in these sessions, you will need at least a free version of either ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, or Google Gemini (or something similar). You will be able to use the master prompts contained in the material with these free versions.

If you are ready to further invest in building an AI Agent (turning prompts into repeatable practices), you will need a paid subscription to your chosen tool.
