Budgeting for Business Managers - an in-house programme

  1. Course Description: The aim of this workshop is to build skills and knowledge of budgeting principles and methods.
  2. Target Group: The course is focused on both non-budget holders who need how budgeting works as well as budget holders who want to or need to expand their competence in this key area. Existing knowledge of financial management and accounting will enable delegates to gain most from this course.
  3. If you need to brush up your financial and accounting skills before coming on this programme then you are welcome to join either the "Financial Management for Non Financial Managers" workshop or the "Introducing Financial Management and Accounting".
  4. Duration: The Budgeting for Business Managers workshop is normally an "in-house" 2 day course but can be tailored for your company as a 1 day programme or extended to meet the specific needs of your organisation.

  Naturally, all courses can be tailored to meet your organisations' specific needs
