This course will enable you to develop your business, accounting and financial skills. You’ll look at the decision-making of companies operating globally and develop your knowledge of financial reporting, international accounting and entrepreneurship. You will analyse and interpret data from both financial and non-financial sources to evaluate performance and support decision making. Both financing and investment decisions are considered for organisations operating in a global environment which is competitive and dynamic.

You’ll explore subjects which are fundamental to understanding the financial position of an enterprise.
