Course Description

Finance plays a critical role in how organisations plan, operate, and make strategic decisions. Yet many managers and professionals are expected to work with budgets, reports, and financial information without having a formal background in finance.
Finance for Non-Finance Managers is a practical, mentor-led training course designed to help professionals understand the financial concepts that influence everyday business decisions. This course focuses on building confidence with financial information and helping participants interpret the numbers that drive organisational performance.
Delivered by Pro Learning Group, this course introduces key financial principles in a clear, accessible way. Participants learn how to read financial statements, understand profitability, evaluate business performance, and contribute more effectively to planning and budgeting discussions.
The course emphasises practical understanding rather than complex accounting theory, enabling professionals to apply financial insights directly within their roles.
