This course will introduce the participants to the fundamentals of business finance. The emphasis is on practical applications and problem-solving techniques. The course is designed to introduce you to the financial decision-making process that will provide insight for the necessity to consider the financial implications of any managerial decision.
We pair you with a mentor who has extensive professional and academic knowledge of the field. You’ll have one-on-one conversations with him or her, and receive useful feedback on improving your work.
Each week, you’ll complete a series of videos, quizzes, slideshows and projects through our online platform – available to access at any time. Scheduling time for a mentoring session is just as flexible.

“After the course I felt that this finance course is specifically designed for non-finance folks like me who are at mid to higher level of management. This course gives the basic tools and techniques which helped me to decode the financials reports and financial jargons which were always flaunted by finance guys of our company.
The small caselets and the engaging assignments empowered me enough that I can contribute in the financial discussions of the products am handling.”
