Description

In this Financial Reporting course I cover the basics of finance.  The course is specifically geared for beginners who quickly want to gain an understanding of Financial Reports.The course is has been created specifically for:Business Owners - are you making sense of your accounting software?Managers/Team Leaders - are you struggling to contribute in board meetings when finance is being discussed?Students - are you new to the world of finance?Individuals - as a non-finance person, would you benefit from understanding financial reporting?I've deliberately created a short course so that it's not too daunting for busy people to commit to. The video content is less than 2 hours, so if you can spare a full day you can easily get through the course. If you don't have a full day, then you can tackle it over a week in half hour sessions.  Each section has 4 tutorial videos followed by a multiple choice quiz, where you can test your knowledge.In the final section, there's a full course summary and a A-Z PDF of all the accounting terms covered.The course is based on UK financial reporting, but it will still be beneficial to students in other parts of the world.
