Finance for non-financial managers training program
On our financial analysis and finance for non-financial manager training courses delegates are given the opportunity to understand and interpret company accounts. What do the key line items really mean? How do the accounts link together? What’s interesting about what’s buried in the notes? What are the key ratios? How could the statements be used in investment analysis?
On these programs course delegates bring a set of financial statements to class, review the statements with their class mates and the course tutor, and use company accounts to generate meaningful information right from the start of training.

Sample commercial awareness course material: finance for non-financial managers
Financial Training Associates makes a small sample of its modelling course material available online free of charge. This free course module was created for a London law firm and is designed to improve and check your understanding of businesses’ accounts. It starts by looking at the key financial statements (profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow). It considers key line items on the financial statements, and examines the links between the statements.
The module concludes with an 8 question multi-choice quiz. If you have a little familiarity with company accounts, then working through the quiz (perhaps with a friend who knows a little more than you) will help improve or check your understanding. If you have no previous experience with company accounts, without the guidance of a tutor the quiz is going to be difficult. Persisting and working through it though should help improve your knowledge of key movements within company accounts.
