Finance for Non-Finance Managers
About This Course
It is generally accepted that finance is a scarce resource used to meet unlimited wants. Finance is also believed to be the life blood of any organisation, be it public or private. As such, it has to be managed optimally to ensure that the wants of the people are met in the most cost effective and transparent manner for the organisational survival. This requires an understanding of public finance management principles. Low levels of resource generation, mis-allocation of funds, resource under-utilisation, lack of accountability/transparency and corruption are common challenges that those responsible for managing public funds experience from time to time. The primary objective of this course is to address these challenges.
