Really? So, what did you learn from this session?
Ms. Dumoran, I know your striving hard to do the task and answer the
written demo. You showed outstanding output in the two unit of competency
which is Preparing trial balance and Preparing financial report but sad to say
you need to pass all the unit of competency because bookkeeping is a full
qualification and project-based.
You have to further review/practice gray areas specifically the other three
unit of competency requirements of food process.
You may come back after a month for reassessment or when you feel
confident enough. Don’t worry, you will be reassessed the same like what we
are doing right now. You will still undergo the whole assessment process,
since bookkeeping is a full qualification.
