Description

Typing numbers is a laborious process. Touch-typing those numbers will improve your productivity and make every task much less painstaking and tedious.

Touch typing is something Pitman Training knows a great deal about - which is why having our name on your CV will mean so much to employers.

The Numeric Data Entry typing course only takes a few hours, but the time spent is invaluable. Unlike other typing courses, ours breaks down the keypad methodically, concentrating on two or three keys at a time to increase speed and accuracy.

We cover data input in Excel and Access as part of the training, as well as an overall view of data entry work and of arithmetic operators.

Once you complete this course, you might like to consider others to further your career - we recommend Sage 50 Accounts or Sage Payroll.

If you’re interested in a career in bookkeeping and accounts, then our Bookkeeping Diploma could help you fulfil your potential. It’s one of our most popular diplomas and is highly rewarding and respected by employers.

There are nine key lessons/stages you will learn throughout this course: -

  • The Home Keys
  • Keys 7, 8 and 9
  • Data Entry Work
  • Keys 1, 2 and 3
  • Keys 0 and the Decimal Point
  • Arithmetic Operators
  • Using Microsoft Excel
  • Using Microsoft Access

Who is this course for?

This course is for those who regularly input figures into a computer and therefore need to improve productivity by learning to touch-type the number keys.

Requirements

There are no pre-requisites required before starting this course.

Career path

Data entry skills can be invaluable in finance and accounting positions such as Accounts Assistant, Purchase Ledger Clerk and Sales Ledger Clerk where you're working with a constant flow of information that needs to be entered onto the varying accounting software programmes.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
