Color Accounting 

Color Accounting is designed to make it easier to learn the fundamentals of accounting. It is an augmentation to the process that you know so well.  It is in no way a substitute or replacement for traditional accounting. And yes, it is REAL accounting. In this self-study version Mark Robilliard said it best – “All the best attributes of the acclaimed classroom-based workshop, but in the convenience of your own time.”

What is Color Accounting?

Color Accounting is a revolutionary way of quickly and easily understanding financial information in a brilliant self-study workshop format.  You will use diagrams and logical colors to see graphically how accounting actually works in a fun interactive way. (imagine no mention of debits or credits until the very end)

Interactive Learning

We fully engage you first with a story-telling, hands-on, and model building activity.  It all happens on your desk and in a vivid diagram on the board in front of you.  It’s wonderful to see the accounting model in a whole new way.  No boring lectures, no assumptions that you already know the basics, no same old same old.

Results?  You will learn the language of business and understand how it all can be applied to business decisions

Table of Contents - Introduction to the course

  • The Foundation of Accounting Literacy 
  • Accounting Comes Alive
  • Financial Storytelling & Analysis    

Color Accounting was initially used as an adult accelerated learning system for corporate education in the workplace.  Neurological research has backed up what Color Accounting practitioners have noticed: that humans respond quicker to conceptual information presented graphically and spatially.  Many examples continue to show that Color Accounting enhances traditional accounting courses.

Today our clients range from the smallest business to executive teams of fortune 500 companies.  From lawyers, legislators, financial regulators, sales people, interns, engineers, bankers, entrepreneurs and of course accountants the benefits of Color Accounting are far reaching.
