Janet Horne received her master of science in business administration and bachelor of science in business education from California State University, Long Beach and has spent her educational career teaching business and computer applications courses. The majority of her teaching career has been at Los Angeles Pierce College. Where, in addition to being a full-time professor, she was the Computer Applications and Office Technologies Department Chairperson, served on many committees, and developed new programs. Horne has been a presenter at many educational meetings and seminars and has been involved with a variety of professional organizations.

Horne’s quest to find a textbook to use in teaching QuickBooks led her to write one of the first texts for QuickBooks Desktop. As technologies change, it is important to work within the new technological environments. With over 1.5 million users of QuickBooks Online¹, Horne feels it is important to have students use cloud-based accounting software and has written QuickBooks Online Plus: A Complete Course 2017 for that purpose. Other textbooks by Horne include several editions of QuickBooks: A Complete Course (uses QuickBooks Desktop Accountant software), QuickBooks Pro: Simplified, QuickBooks Pro: An Introduction, Peachtree Complete Accounting, Getting Started with QuickBooks Pro, and Computerized Accounting with CA-Simply Accounting. Horne is also the author of Runners Corporation and A-1 Photography accounting practice sets.
