QuickBooks and On-the-job training

*Hello. I placed the following ad on Craigslist: 

In an attempt to update my QuickBooks skills and be current with the latest version, I am willing to volunteer my time in exchange for: a) training b) letter of recommendation in regards to QuickBooks.
I am looking for a business that I can trust with current QuickBooks! It is of value to me to be trained in the English language. I must understand what you are trying to teach me. I have not used QuickBooks Pro since 2004 and need an up date to be competitive with employment offers.
Please provide: Company name, City, contact name, and phone number. No junk please!
Yes I am a real person and not surfing for information. Thanks, EW

*On day one, a wonderful business answered the call for training and review. I was able to talk with the office manager and look at the newer QuickBooks 2014 system.
*On day two, I was introduced to Katy Winders from Stanislaus Business Alliance. She reviewed how to 1) open a new business, 2) complete the set up interview, 3) set up the chart of accounts, 4) post bank opening balance, 5) inter debits and credits off the bank statement, 6) post invoices.
*Along the way, I received 15 lessons in regards to QuickBooks 2014 and I have been reviewing The Missing Manuel: QuickBooks 2014.

*My most current Craigslist ad reads as follows: 

In an attempt to update my QuickBooks skills and be current with the latest version, I have been reviewing The Missing Manuel and 15 emails, lessons in regard to QuickBooks 2014.

I was privileged to view a businesses books and received training with the office manager.

I am now looking for a part-time position where I can get some root teen hands on training. I have not used QuickBooks Pro since 2004.

I now qualify for On-the-Job training through Merced County's WorkNet. This means you get paid to hire me.

I am looking for a business that I can trust!

Please provide: Company name, City, contact name, and phone number. No junk please!
