What's This Course About

AI for Accounting shows accountants and finance teams how to bring modern AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude and Microsoft Copilot into everyday accounting work. AI can extract data from invoices and receipts, categorise transactions, assist with reconciliations, draft reports and flag unusual entries, reducing manual effort and the risk of errors. The course is designed for accountants, bookkeepers, finance executives and SME owners who want practical, responsible ways to use AI in their accounting practice.

You will begin with an introduction to AI for accounting, covering what current AI tools can do, where they fit in the accounting workflow, and how to write effective prompts for finance tasks. Next you will apply AI to bookkeeping and transactions, using it to read and extract data from documents, classify expenses, prepare journal entries and support bank reconciliations. You will then use AI for reporting and analysis, summarising financial statements, explaining variances, building simple forecasts and preparing management commentary.

The final topic covers AI for compliance, audit and automation, including reviewing transactions for anomalies, preparing audit schedules, checking policy and Malaysia SST considerations, and automating repetitive steps with AI-powered workflows. Throughout the course you will learn how to verify AI output, protect confidential financial data and keep professional judgement at the centre of your work. By the end, you will be able to use AI confidently to work faster, improve accuracy and add more value as an accounting professional.

As CTO of Tertiary Infotech Academy Pte Ltd, the Singapore training organisation behind Tertiary Courses, Dr. Alfred Ang combines the roles of full-stack AI developer, Agentic AI solution architect and corporate trainer. A large share of that engineering work sits close to finance. Dr. Ang built tertiary-hrms, a Next.js HR and accounting platform covering payroll, payslips, expense claims and attendance, together with native iOS and Android companion apps that let managers approve leave and expenses on the go. Another project is an ERP prototype that handles purchase orders through human-in-the-loop approvals, three-way-matched invoices and low-stock replenishment driven by AI agents and scheduled tasks. Dr. Ang has also written native document-scanner apps that use on-device OCR to capture receipts and paperwork, a travel-expense tracker that converts currencies with live exchange rates, and an n8n inventory forecasting agent running on a local LLM through Ollama so sensitive figures never leave the machine. The registration platform that powers the Tertiary Courses sites in Singapore, Malaysia and Ghana, with its orders, invoices and payment gateways, is another system Dr. Ang designs and maintains. More than 300 public repositories at github.com/alfredang document this practical, build-it-yourself approach. Because these systems handle real money, approvals and audit trails every day, Dr. Ang understands both the efficiency AI can deliver in accounting and the controls needed to keep it accurate and accountable. That same emphasis on traceability, segregation of duties and clean records shapes every system Dr. Ang designs, whether it handles a payslip, an expense claim or a supplier invoice.

That grounding shapes how AI for Accounting is taught. The course opens with an introduction to what tools such as ChatGPT, Claude and Microsoft Copilot can realistically do in a finance team, and how to write prompts that produce reliable, well-structured answers. Learners then apply AI to bookkeeping and transactions, extracting data from invoices and receipts, categorising entries and assisting with reconciliations, before moving on to reporting and analysis, where AI helps draft management reports, explain variances and summarise trends for non-finance readers. The final topic covers compliance, audit and automation: flagging unusual entries, documenting procedures and building simple automated workflows while keeping a human reviewer firmly in control. Dr. Ang draws on the approval flows, matching logic and expense pipelines already built into production systems to show where automation genuinely saves time and where professional judgement must stay. Sessions are practical and example-driven, with participants working through realistic accounting tasks rather than abstract slides, and with frank discussion of data confidentiality, accuracy checks and responsible use. Accountants, bookkeepers, finance executives and SME owners will leave with prompts, templates and workflows they can apply on their next working day. Participants also compare outputs from different AI tools on the same task, learning to choose the right assistant for spreadsheets, narrative reports or document extraction, and to keep a clear audit trail of how AI-assisted figures were produced.
