Bookkeepers and accountants must be tax-compliant data managers who assist business owners with proper and timely information. By earning your DFA - Specialist designation as Bookkeeping Services Specialist, you'll maximize your value proposition to your clients, and interact better with other professional advisors to the client, with the skills to facilitate planning for the employee, investor and owner-manager.
The knowledge I have gained from the courses in the DFA - Bookkeeping Services Specialist Program has made it possible to give my clients service far above that of a regular bookkeeper. The step up to managerial concepts and advising capabilities has made me more valuable to my clients and allowed my business to grow through referrals. As an instructor for accounting and office technologies at a local community college, the knowledge I have gained has greatly enhanced my teaching and allows me to delve deeper into topics brought up by students. Overall, receiving this designation has allowed me to provide much better service to my clients, and in turn, my clients receive the advice and information they need to make informed business decisions.Mary Madsen, Madsen Business Services
