    For those looking for training or refreshers you might consider YouTube. YouTube has tutorials on a number of different software packages and many are quite good. For Microsoft Office training you can look to http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/training/FX100565001033.aspx for a number of excellent tutorials. Most products have community sites where you can ask questions or find tutorials. Intuit’s community is very active and can be found at http://community.intuit.com/quickbooks.

    It’s also possible to utilize Social Media tools like Twitter or Facebook to build a network of people who can answer quick questions or provide training resources. If you’re looking for something specific feel free to find me on Twitter @Chris_Jenkins.
