I have no accounting background, can I still use the Rise College solution?
Being user-friendly & intuitive in terms of its layout & interface, Rise School Management will work for both non-accountants & accountants.
Upon switching to RSM, your School will also get training in person with our Team in our system as part of the RSM onboarding process.
Once you start using RSM regularly, it is a sign that you understand the system and how it works.
To illustrate it further, most Bursars & Admin Staff, who use RSM daily in their work, do not come from the bookkeeping or accounting background.
We also run a 3-day Accounting Training Course that trains Bursars & Admin staff on the accounting fundamentals.
