Well-organised course indeed! A quick flashback of my ACCA knowledge.\n\nAlthough it was challenging but managed to complete it with my work.\n\nRecommended to finance professionals. :)
This is a great course. It takes one through a journey of exploring the changes that have taken place in the finance profession!
Was such a refreshing experience. REally helps to get you back in the swing i.e. the mood of things.. A 5 star course
Good for a general understanding of the mainstream theories relating to business strategy and corporate governance.
