Organisations can also use our financial competency assessments to establish training needs, and establish the level of financial competence. Our books can provide excellent reference material and attendees can obtain CPD hours.

5/5

Very clear and concise and gave relevant and meaningful examples relating to our work and organisation. Good course excellent trainer who grasped the particular nature of our accounting system and adapted her delivery accordingly. I particularly enjoyed the exercise that enabled us to interpret a budget report where we were able to explore the different risk factors that may cause an adverse or savings to our budgets.

I am able to email, call, or have virtual support with a variety of aspects of financial management. I am continuously learning and increasing in confidence. I also feel able to ask any question, even the most simple things, and obtain positive responses. Highly recommended.
