This next-level finance course shows managers how to make decisions using their organisation’s financial information. You will learn to read, interpret, test and take action using the language and techniques of finance to support your strategic decisions.
This course will teach you to model, forecast, and plan for the financial impact of your decisions and help you stand out as a leader in your organisation.
