Gain confidence in discussing financial aspects and analyzing company statements.
This course won't make you an accounting expert, but it will equip you to confidently discuss financial aspects of your company or one you're evaluating. It will enable you to view the balance sheet of a concern as if a 'photograph', while viewing the income statement as if a 'movie camera'. While analyzing financial statements may help you seek answers, this course will also guide you in shaping the right questions often, discovering what you didn't think to ask can be just as crucial as finding the answers you seek.
