Finance for non-Financial Managers

Finance for Non-Financial Managers is designed specifically for those working in the communications sector who have no formal financial, accounting or business school training who need to be able to work with financial information and their colleagues in the finance function. The course provides clear, easy-to-follow explanations of key financial concepts with extensive worked examples and exercises drawn from the communications sector. The course builds slowly and steadily upon itself, repeating the key themes before introducing new knowledge and skills to ensure participants really can deploy their learning on their return to the office. The course encompasses the skills required to perform investment appraisals for business cases, prepare and manage budgets as well as being able to read and analyse financial statements. A bonus session looks at the role of financial institutions, equity analysts and company valuations as well as approaches to financing and an analysis of the Dot Com boom and bust. The course is highly practical and extensive use is made of computer based simulation models, group exercises and case studies throughout every session.
