General information

The course is designed to teach participants to become more competent users of accounting information, financial statements and techniques of financial analysis. Accounting as an information system is the communication mechanism that tells a company’s story in facts and figures. The idea is not to train participants to become accountants but instead to help them to understand accounting information so that they can contribute to the success of the business.
