Description

The goal of this course is to give you a sound understanding of the 3 core financial statements and the "story" they tell.

This course will cover:

  • The Income Statement
  • The Balance Sheet
  • The Statement of Cash Flows

Whether you are currently working for a company, own a company, or looking to start a company, having a working knowledge of the financial statements gives you an edge that many people lack. I am not interested in turning you into an accounting genius, but I am very interested in building your business confidence.

This course is an excerpt taken from the full-length course, Seeing the Big Picture: Business and Financial Acumen Training. In this course you will find reference to the 5 Drivers business model, which isn't covered here, but in the full-length course.

Who this course is for:

  • Business Professionals - Looking to Advance Your Career
  • Entrepreneurs & Small Business Owners - Looking to Grow Your Company
  • Job Seekers - Looking to Build Your Credibility
