Should you have any questions (even after reading the course details) please feel you can call us. . Indeed you might find yourself in one of the situations below, like some previous clients:
Not sure if a 1-day or 2-day course is most suitable. This can depend on any prior financial experience, how confident you feel and what you need to know. We are happy to talk this through with you.
Or you might be completely new to finance and simply not know where to start. That’s fine too. We are happy to work with you. If we have notthing appropriate perhaps we can signpost you elsewhere. Obligation free!
Feel your needs fall somewhere between two courses. Don’t worry! This is not unusual. We can guide you – sometimes combining modules from different courses.
Maybe your situation is such that you are looking for something more bespoke. No guarantees but we are happy to look and see if we can accommodate your needs or signpost you elsewhere.
Indeed, because the nature of the financial demands people face is now so diverse, the related training needs are also wide-ranging. We don't pretend to necessarily have all the answers!
Will this training work for YOU?
Ultimately this is for you to assess but perhaps unlike some other training providers, we:
- Positively want to talk to you before the training to understand your specific needs, issues and priorities
- Assume no prior financial experience or exposure but if you have some, we can leverage it.
- Work only with individual businesses (and often individuals) so you have the option to build your company's own numbers into the training (confidentially of course) so you can hit the ground running on your return to the office.
- Have none of the compromises implicit in other training providers' open (or public) courses:
Financial responsibilities vary. What is important to one is irrelevant to another (e.g. budgets, capital expenditure, cash flow etc). Open courses have to compromise. We don't.
Due to the different sectors that delegates businesses operate in, certain financial issues can be crucial to one delegate but meaningless to another (e.g. credit control is a non-issue to a retailer).
Open courses are strictly timetabled. There is no provision to spend more time on, or go more in depth into, an area that is of particular importance to any one person.
Do you really want to risk doing your training with another delegate whose sole reason for attending is that if they stick it out it will trigger their bonus?
Putting YOUR needs first:
We understand Finance (and not just from a textbook). We've helped numerous businesses with real financial problems. So you will make sense of the numbers like never before!
Happy to come to you! at typically modest extra cost. Don't compromise on something so important based on what's available on your doorstep. Alternatively come to us in Haslemere, Surrey
Full supporting materials including a detailed course manual plus an e-book to help you correctly classify costs in the Profit & Loss Account
The ultimate in flexibility! If you simply can't afford to lose 2 whole days out of the working week we will hold one of the days on the weekend (£50 extra cost).
Easy to engage with! We use visuals extensively to convey ideas and principles. And numerous examples / case histories show you how to apply what you learn in your work.
Training that delivers! Ultimately training has to be judged by results. All of our course content is rigorously and ongoingly assessed based on the impact our clients tell us it has.
Across our courses, benefit from:
- Being better able to deal with the financial aspects of your job.
- An ability to make an immediate impact on your return to the office.
- The confidence of knowing how the financial side fits together.
- Being credible and avoid the risk of making basic errors when talking about financial issues or information with someone more knowledgeable than you.
