Xero Education Month: Next stop – Asia

posted in Uncategorized

Can you believe it’s almost June already? Is it just me or does each year seem to go quicker than the one before? In many of the conversations I’ve had over the last fortnight, I get the sense that people are hungry either for a bit of inspiration, a new challenge, a fresh perspective, or a better way of doing things in the months ahead.

Enter Education Month in June 2021

It’s no secret that 2020 was a huge challenge for businesses around the world. We know that now, more than ever, we need to support our small business owners, bookkeepers and accountants to help them build, maintain and grow their capability.

So, for the first time ever, the Xero team, who are never shy of a challenge, will spend the entire month of June offering educational events and content covering everything from building your business to the best apps and wellbeing at work. The best bit is that Xero Education Month gives everyone access to top experts across the globe, all for free.

Education Month kicked off earlier this year in New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom and EMEA. We’ll be opening registrations for Canada and the USA shortly. Our Asia registrations are rolling in thick and fast, so it’s safe to say you’ll be amongst great company when you come along to your chosen workshops.

What to expect

Choose a learning journey that best suits you by taking your pick from webinars that cover:

Xero tips and tricks to help you work faster
Apps that connect with Xero to drive efficiency in your business or practice
Thought leadership to challenge your thinking
Wellbeing insights to help you support yourself and your team

If you’re in Asia, registrations are now open. You can hear more from me, explore our themes, and plan your learning journey here.
