Xero Launches Xero U

Online accounting software provider Xero launched its new Xero U, a customized learning environment for accounting professionals and small businesses offering “right-for-you” educational content.

This customized learning is meant to cater to accountants, bookkeepers, advisors, small business owners or financial staff.

The content includes educational videos, webinars and events teaching business and accounting professionals how to grow their business with Xero.

“We’re investing heavily in education so that we can teach our customers how to be even more successful in their jobs using Xero as a tool,” stated Amy Vetter, Xero’s global vice president of education and enablement. “Up until now, practice owners have struggled to find the training path that is right for the different functions in their firm or business. Xero U will now allow them to find the educational content tailored to their exact role so they can take their knowledge to the next level in a way that is efficient and rewarding.”

Xero created Xero U’s customized learning approach based on the customer feedback of thousands of small business owners and accounting professionals, which also shaped the course, content and delivery methods.

“And this is just the beginning,” stated Vetter. “As a company, we’re focused on offering small business owners and accounting professionals even more customized content to help them succeed — whether it be Xero product specifics or tips and trends on a variety of other topics that keep them up at night.”
