Finance for Non-Financial Managers

About the course

The information contained in financial statements often forms the basis for examining and reviewing past decisions, underscores discussions in the boardroom and sets the agenda for the future direction of the company. 

The aim of the Finance for Non-Financial Managers course is to give managers from a non-financial background the essential tools and knowledge to make informed, objective financial decisions.

The course is presented in a non-technical fashion, designed for managers and executives with responsibility for managing budgets who have limited or no financial background. Accounts and information sheets will be provided along with a contextual analysis of recent financial news and topical subjects.

A CPD qualification offers significant benefits to professionals and their employers by helping them to:

  • Promote career advancement, development and career resilience
  • Demonstrate a commitment to high professional standards, delivering effectiveness and high levels of professional performance
  • Increase consumer and client satisfaction by ensuring an ethical approach to business
  • Be consistently committed to lifelong learning
