“I have known Jackie (Andriet) Bernal of “Bernal Business Services Inc.” for the past 4 years through her bookkeeping services. I was fortunate to attend one of her training seminars this past Dec of 2008. I would recommend Jackie’s training to anyone looking to gain knowledge for their bookkeeping and business needs. Jackie is able to instruct at a variety of levels. Her experience and knowledge of various accounting programs allows her to see exactly where you are and what you need to learn to exceed to the next level. The course taught me systems that I could apply to my business. The training session was very well organized. Jackie explains so you understand how things work together in your business. The atmosphere is relaxing which allows a person to feel like no question is a dumb question. Visual and hands-on projects are available through out the class that you can actually experience programs and do examples as she teaches. I would give this training seminar a definite A+ and recommend it to anyone.”

SHELLEY MIDDLETON

“Jacqueline (Andriet) Bernal was the bookkeeper for Diamori Fine Jewellers and Polar Star Diamonds for almost 4 years. During that time we transitioned through several staff and store managers as the owner approached retirement. While I was the General Manager, Jackie kept me informed and up to date on all financial matters. She met challenges very well, and was available at all times for questions and assistance in various matters. Her patience, willingness to explain things, and availability were greatly appreciated. I would strongly recommend Jackie and Bernal Business Services to anyone looking for a top-notch bookkeeper.”

Robert West, Former General Manager at Diamori Ltd. and Polar Star Diamonds Ltd.

“Jackie is an exceptionally bright lady with a high level of ingenuity. She is constantly amazing us with her level of knowledge and her problem solving ability. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who is in need of bookkeeping services.”
