I felt a little lost on how he was explaining how to break up categories. I am hoping as I continue through this course I will begin to understand more and more so I can apply the knowledge of what I am learning. Also I would like to learn about this software for Churches as that is what I will specifically be using it for.

It was a good match but I wished it spoke on a few other things that are affected by the processes that we preformed in this course.

We are transitioning from Quickbooks 2017 desktop to Aplos. It would be great to have a course that is prep/transition course.

Dear Udemy Team, I recently completed the "Aplos Not For Profit Accounting Software" course on your platform, and I am pleased to share my personal experience with you. Prior to taking this course, I lacked knowledge and skills in utilizing non-profit accounting software such as Aplos. However, through the comprehensive lessons and practical exercises provided in the course, I was able to gain a deep understanding of the software and its functionalities. As the Internal Audit Director at Addis Ababa City Administration, my role involves overseeing budgeting, planning, procurement management, and financial accounting processes. While I have prior experience with accounting software like IBEX and Peachtree, learning Aplos has broadened my skill set and enhanced my proficiency in non-profit accounting practices. My primary motivation for taking this course was to update my professional development and position myself as a competitive candidate for opportunities within NGOs based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The knowledge and skills I have acquired through the course have undoubtedly equipped me to meet this goal effectively. Although I recognize that continued practice and application of the Aplos software are essential to fully master its capabilities, I am confident that the course has provided me with a solid foundation to build upon. I believe that the practical insights gained from the course will not only benefit me in my current role but also contribute to my future career aspirations in the non-profit sector. Thank you for offering such a valuable learning experience, and I look forward to applying my newfound knowledge to make a meaningful impact in the field of non-profit accounting. Warm regards, Belachew Getaw
