The accounting for not-for-profit organizations are a little different though. I guess because I'm studying accounting that I would go for that qualification but from personal experience, I know that its very tedious. The project management course on other hand is probably a lot more interesting. Both would better yourself in the long run so good luck with choosing!

If it's just a MYOB-type course at TAFE or something, then you can probably enroll yourself and it won't be too expensive. Would the Prince2 course more relevant to your masters? I'm planning to do that next year too! What sort of bookkeeping course were you thinking?
