About this course

Gain the skills to specialise in payroll

Businesses across Australia need well-trained payroll personnel who are knowledgeable and can maintain accurate payroll systems. In this course you will learn how to establish and use payroll systems using KeyPay, a cloud-based payroll platform.

You will learn to perform sometimes complex tasks, including preparing salary packaging arrangements and additional allowances, processing superannuation payments, and processing employee terminations.

If you have completed a Certificate IV in Accounting and Bookkeeping you can apply for a credit transfer for four units which will reduce your study time.
