Course Description:

'' This programme is designed for those to learn the basics of accounting and financial terminology and financial analysis techniques. This programme teaches you how these concepts and strategies are integrated into your organisation. You will learn how to address and communicate problems more effectively, how to identify relevant information, and how to apply the analytical skills needed to make more informed business decisions.

Accounting is the process of identifying, measuring and communicating economic information, with the purpose of informing decision-making relating to the financial performance and financial position of an organisation.

An understanding of accounting is a prerequisite for understanding the financial success and financial stability of any organisation. At the heart of accounting is a model for recording and presenting economic information, which is summarised in a balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.

The challenge of identifying, measuring and communicating economic information is not straightforward, and a deeper understanding of accounting requires an appreciation of both the strengths and limitations of data. This informs the analysis and interpretation of financial statements.

This programme will use a variety of teaching methods, including lectures, worked examples and class discussion.
