Why Manufacturing Finance Basics Training?
For the uninitiated, finance can seem mysterious, complete with its own terminology, rules, and regulations. DVIRC’s Finance Basics course will enable you to confidently “speak the language” of business finance and understand how to leverage this new information.
The DVIRC Difference
DVIRC offers its financial management training for all managers and supervisors. The course is built around the Harvard Business Review (HBR) Guide to Finance Basics for Managers, and the course material includes the HBR book and a sample set of manufacturing financial statements.
In addition, participants can bring their company’s financial statements to each session for guidance on their company’s performance. Through the course of this program, you will gain a clear understanding of the sometimes-mystifying world of finance documents and terms: balance sheets, income statement, charts of accounts, cost of goods sold, even business valuation approaches. We also spend time discussing the things financial statements don’t tell you, not to mention common performance measurement traps.
The cost includes all course material, including industry financial ratio reports. Also, because DVIRC understands the value of team members sharing the same knowledge base and being able to jointly support decision making for growing and managing the business, we offer discounts for registering multiple attendees
As a bonus, session four includes a visit from a regional bank lending officer with credit management experience, who will explain the ways lenders analyze financial statements.
