Course Purpose

This course provides payroll education and is required to take the Payroll Certification exam.

Course Overview

This course explains payroll. It addresses the latest payroll laws and up-to-the-minute updates. The course focuses on application rather than theory. Examples and real business applications enhance the course and demonstrate the relevance of what you are learning. You learn how to calculate payroll, pay payroll taxes, and prepare payroll tax reports.

Course Length

The course is a seven-week course (one session per week). However, the course is an on-demand, self-study, self-paced course. Therefore, the length of the course is determined by the time you dedicate to the course and your understanding of payroll.

If you purchase the course after 5:00 pm MT (4:00 pm PT, 6:00 pm CT, 7:00 pm ET), we email you the course access code and instructions the morning of the next business day. We are closed on the weekend and major holidays.
