Business Finance Training

Give your staff financial knowledge and skills to improve financial understanding and decision-making with our bespoke business finance training course.

Description

Understanding financial affairs and terms is crucial to becoming commercially aware and making a profit, but it can sometimes feel confusing and complex.  We created our business finance course to help employees expand their financial knowledge and implement it into their work.

  • Need help with terminology and concepts? We’ll cover everything employees need to know at a level that’s right for them. Our approachable and experienced trainers will answer any questions that attendees may have.
  • Tailored to you. We’ll cover broader financial themes while focussing on the practical knowledge and skills employees need to demonstrate.
  • Plenty of examples and questions. We’ll show how real-life events reflect course learnings, helping delegates de-code news stories and understand how interest rates, exchange rates and data protection, amongst many others, affect them.
  • Expert trainers. Our training consultants have experience teaching this topic and have implemented financial knowledge in their business careers.
  • Engaging and enjoyable. Learning shouldn’t be a chore – it should be fun and interactive. Our trainers make sure that delegates are captivated to the end.

Attendees will feel more confident interpreting financial reports and optimising the budgets they receive.  With the help of exercises, scenarios and discussions, we’ll ensure delegates leave our business finance course ready to implement what they’ve learnt.

Our course is perfect for employees without a financial background looking for insight into the connection between their work and the business’s financial side.  Employees informed about this relationship will understand how financial world matters impact their work, those in other regions, and their clients’ needs, to name a few.

By the end of your business finance course, delegates will be able to:

  • Interpret profit and loss accounts and the significance of different values
  • Appreciate and calculate the current and quick ratios, Return on Equity (ROE), and the net profit margin
  • Recognise how the value of a business is calculated
  • Calculate whether Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) have been reached
  • Identify different sources of finance and how they relate to the delegate’s employer
  • Budget for short- and long-term projects
  • Understand the risks of fluctuating exchange rates in international trade and what can be done to mitigate these risks.

Depending on your course objectives, organisational benefits include improved financial decision-making, enhanced financial risk management, cost reduction, revenue growth and increased profitability.
