What is it
High-quality, affordable, convenient, online Cash Handler training right when you need it.
Why
Leaders will be happy to have a team of well-educated, knowledgeable, certified Cash Handlers to manage the organization’s cash, and give everyone peace of mind. No more scheduling nightmares trying to get all Cash Handlers squeezed into tight rooms within a couple of days. All staff (including seasonal staff!) will hear a consistent message. We provide reporting to keep you informed about the training progress of all Cash Handlers.
Cash Handlers will be happy to be able to take the course from anywhere there is an internet connection 24/7/365. Plus, we have injected a little humor into an otherwise dry subject. They may even chuckle a time or two. The quizzes at the end of each Module are directly related to the content and easy to understand. No trick questions! We also provide a certificate after successfully completing the course.
