The goal of the Finance for Non-Financial Managers program is to provide leaders and decision-makers who do not possess a strong grounding in finance, an understanding of how money works inside their organization and how money can be used in making decisions.
Are you in Sales and Marketing, Warehousing and Logistics, Engineering, Operations, Human Resources or perhaps in another non-financial management role? If so, this programme is for you! Finance for Non-Financial Managers (FNFM) is designed to develop financial literacy and create a better understanding of your contribution to strategic decision making.
