What is the difference between computerized accounting and bookkeeping ?

I am interested in going to a community college and there are 2 certificates that someone can get that having nothing to do with each other even though some of the classes are similiar in nature. One is bookkeeping certificate consisting of 27 units to complete and one is a computerized accounting consisting of 17 units to complete. I like both of them but I am not sure which certificate to go for. What is the difference between the two and which one should I go for ? Here is the course outline for each .

The curriculum differs by one or two classes. If I were you, I would get the book keeping one than add the computerized accounting class and the avanzed computerized class. I think you would be very well prepared if you had both. Most accounting today is done via computerized accounting systems.
