Overview

Business Friendly Finance - Half Day (am) - Overview

This course is aimed at non financial managers and others in positions where an understanding of finance will help them be more effective in their main role. It is designed to demystify financial jargon and introduce the key financial statements, how to interpret them and how to use them to obtain essential business information.

The course then moves to areas which are most likely to be used frequently by delegates: How to work out cost and profit, how to plan and measure budgets, how to establish true costs to maximise profit, and finally options for price setting in order to achieve company objectives.

The course aims to give delegates a practical knowledge of finance which will help them make more informed decision and be conversant with areas of financial theory which can be used in their daily activities.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
