As a student, taking the Certified Junior Bookkeeper certification really boosted my confidence in accounting. I learned how to organize records, prepare simple financial reports, and understand the basics of bookkeeping. It's not just theory—I can now apply what I learned in our school activities. I'm proud to be a CJB because it shows I'm ready for real-world accounting tasks even before I graduate!

As someone who is from a non-business course (STEM), I am really grateful for the opportunity this institution has given me not just to learn but also to love accounting. Through this program, I have learned that accounting is not easy and it is not just for anyone, thus accounting will really make your life challenging, the same way you find balancing accounting equations hard. But, just as it is hard, it is as easy as once you fully grasped and understand all the underlying concepts behind it, I am sure that you will be able to balance all the accounting equations in your way. That is why I want to say thank you for ACTI for guiding me in this first step towards the world of accountancy. I wish that this first step for me and to my fellow CJB's that may this be the step that will pave its way towards our success.
