140-Day QuickBooks Trial Software Free with Textbook
PLEASANTON, Calif., Aug. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- The Sleeter Group has announced
that a trial version of QuickBooks software will be included with the
publisher's three QuickBooks textbooks. Students taking courses in QuickBooks
are often required to pay hundreds of dollars for a fully functional version
of the program. But for the first time, a 140-day student trial version of the
world's most popular small business software will be included free to students
using textbooks from The Sleeter Group, a respected publisher of QuickBooks
resources.
The special trial version will enable students at technical schools,
community colleges and other educational centers to have complete access to
all of the features of QuickBooks during a quarter or semester-long class.
Instructors generally select the course materials, then either pre-purchase
them for the students or require students to obtain them separately.
"When instructors and schools can offer students a free version of
QuickBooks that lasts as long as their course does, it helps both students and
the schools achieve success in their training missions," said Doug Sleeter,
president of The Sleeter Group. "Students don't have to worry about purchasing
the system, but still are able to learn and engage the program with full
functionality, instead of using a version with limited features."
The Sleeter Group offers textbooks and resources for instructors and
students, ranging from the beginner-level Fundamentals textbook, to
Intermediate and Complete books. The materials, along with in-class guidance
by instructors, help students establish essential skills in small business
bookkeeping, making them better prepared for the workforce.
The QuickBooks Fundamentals course textbook ($79.95) is designed for users
who may be computer novices, providing an introduction to basic program
operations, including file setup, reports, sales, AP, AR and reconciliation
functions. The QuickBooks Intermediate textbook ($79.95) covers more detailed
tasks, including inventory, payroll, budgeting, forecasting, business
planning, sales tax and period-end procedures. The Complete course book
($99.95) includes material from both the Fundamentals and Intermediate
textbooks. All include hands-on, step-by-step exercises, review questions and
a final summary problem. The 140-day student version of QuickBooks is included
free in all 2008 QuickBooks textbooks, available at http://www.Sleeter.com.
The Sleeter Group also includes a variety of resources for instructors,
including manuals, PowerPoint presentations and test banks that instructors
can access online. Quantity discounts are also offered.

provide consulting services to small business owners in the accounting
software and business process design areas. The group provides QuickBooks
