Level of Competency to be gained
·
External resource requirements and locations
·
Required authorisation & licensing
·
Agreed upon timeframe for review and completion
·

·
Timeframe
·
Type of technology used

2) 2. Create a networking plan that could be utilised within your workplace including:
· Roles and responsibilities of bookkeepers
· Networking opportunities available including reasons for choice
· Activities that these networking partners can potentially perform for your company
· Feedback requirements that require clarification from these networking partners to ensure that client needs are constantly met
Note: A networking plan (can be in a dot point format) for yourself that would be helpful for your bookkeeping profession for e.g. any CPD plans, networking etc.
3)3. Using a planning tool of your choice, develop a work plan for your next working week. The plan should include:
· Tasks to be completed/prioritisation
· Timelines and deadlines
