About Gail Pates

Our Mission: At Universal Accounting®, we are driven to equip individuals with the education, skills, and confidence they need to enjoy a successful career in small business accounting, bookkeeping, and tax preparation. Today’s university programs focus on the complexities of audit, tax, and accounting standards for large corporations. Yet over 80% of all accounting opportunities are found within small businesses. Universal Accounting® was built around the unmistakable need for competent training in the proper application of accounting principles for small businesses. Our programs are skills-driven, focusing on the vital areas of small business accounting, tax preparation, and business fundamentals, without spending years in school. We assist accounting and tax firms to build more profitable client bases. We help individuals start and enhance their careers in bookkeeping, accounting, and tax so they can receive the promotions they deserve and earn what they are worth. We take businesses from red to black so they can be successful and increase their profits. Universal Accounting® believes the role of accounting is a proactive one. Our programs are specifically designed to provide the structure and support to become not just an accounting professional, but a Profit & Growth Expert.
