Six certificates, one exam each. A certificate is a few modules; a module is one or more courses, built on the real screens of the application and a demo company. Read a module online, check yourself with its practice quiz as often as you like, then pass the exam (80%). Partners can teach from the same decks.
Accountants, users and partners. Level 1: the daily work in WatuAccounts. Level 2, Advanced: costing, reports, tax, the year end and settings, and the apps whose figures post to the books: WatuPOS, WatuStock, WatuProcure and WatuProjects.
