Accounts assistant

Every organisation requires an effective finance function to take the lead on financial planning, financial control and financial reporting. The finance team produces meaningful information to help leaders and managers make informed decisions. This also requires decision makers to have a basic understanding of accounting and to be able to understand financial information and reports.

This course is designed to help the non-financial managers and professionals gain the necessary skills to successfully interpret, analyse and make decisions based on financial information and reports.

This ten course pack from BPP is designed to provide you with essential guidance and knowledge on financial management. These courses will develop the skills needed to carry out your day-to-day job.

By completing this pack, you will gain a better understanding of: 
 

• how to plan your organisation's finances
• budgeting
• expenses
• cash and credit
• working capital
• supply chain management.

Effective cash management is about having the right money in the right place at the right time - minimising the time spent waiting for money to arrive, minimising the interest we pay, and maximising the value of our money. That sounds easier said than done, but there are a range of techniques that can help your organisation achieve this.

This course will guide you on the mechanisms and techniques available to enhance cash management in your organisation. Gain an understanding of the instruments available to make and collect payments, along with the opportunities and complexities of electronic banking. You'll also be able to identify the key attributes of various account structures and systems, as well as short-term borrowing and investment options.
