Company In-house Training Course: Finance for Managers The Training Department has been asked to run this course again, which was very successful last time. It is going to take place at the Training Center of the Company from 1st to 10th October.
Firstly, it should be known that it is an intensive, practical, residential course, which aims to improve the ability of managers to handle the financial and numerical aspects of their work. It will include the following aspects: understanding the underlying principles of financial management; developing the needed skills to plan and implement a budget; improving their ability to read and interpret accounting data as well as understanding and interpreting the company’s internal financial systems. After three days of training, managers are bound to have a better knowledge of how finance works in the company. Moreover, they can also learn how important it is to use information technology effectively in order to improving profitability.
Secondly, we have received very positive feedbacks after the April course, in particular from the managers of the more recently established departments. They especially appreciated the practical and ‘the Company-based’ aspects of the course. We trust this course will meet the needs of non-financial managers already involved in budget planning and financial management as part of their job to some extent, and wishing to increase their expertise in job-related finance. However, it should be point out that the course is not designed for managers who have already undergone a professional training in finance.
Thirdly, for participants, a certain amount of work will have to be done in preparation for the course. Managers will be required to analyze the financial procedures of their own departments. It will support a programme of group exercises and case studies with the purpose to stimulate discussion and decide on action, relating specifically to the company’s actual issues and problems. It is expected that the following topics will come out of this work: the structure of the company internal accounting systems, costing methods and cost control, profit analysis and cash-flow forecasts, capital and revenue spending, as well as the practical tools of measurement in financial performance.
Fourthly, as the author of a well-known series of business skills publications, Tim Reeves has particular expertise in the needs of a medium-sized company with our range of business activities. Peter Harrington is the other consultant involved. He is a Financial Manager, with special contribution to relating the course content to the Company systems and procedures. With feedback from the April course and recent management recommendations, we will give more attention to the details of the company pricing policy.
Candidates are expected to send completed internal application forms to Ross Dixon at the earliest possible time if it is their wish to reserve a place on this course. We will distribute further details of accommodation and exact timings within three days. Contact me on 55667788, if further information is required.
