Administrative roles
Digital skills courses for payroll officers: skillrung
In brief
Administrative roles are the point almost everything passes through: invoices, contracts, payslips, bank details, identity documents, spreadsheets shared with contractors. They are also where urgent requests presented as exceptional land, and that is the playground of bank transfer fraud. Skillrung courses follow these flows and the questions that come with them: where to store a sensitive document, how long to keep it, how to verify a request, what to do with a file received by mistake. Three levelled quizzes measure your progress and issue a dated certificate in your name.
