although not specialists in accounting or finance, need to understand the main concepts and techniques in order to analyse the organisation\u2019s financial position, question teams, and make

The program is structured into two sequential and complementary modules: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Module 1:<\/strong> Financial accounting, cost analysis and management control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Module 2:<\/strong> Operational finance and the business\u2019s structural finance<br>Each module, lasting 2 full days, includes around 8 sessions, mostly based on
