Referenzen

*** Being a non-finance background, this course has cleared so many basics and fundamental. Material and videos are very useful, instructor has tried to make all the concept very simple and easy to understood. Thanks.

*** The lecturer has a great ability to break down corporate finance theory in plain language and give practical examples to grasp the essential knowledge that required by a general manager.

*** A very intuitive course totally on the point of understanding things. 

*** This was an excellent course. I work in strategy but my background is commercial, which means I am accustomed to using figures provided for the company without a great deal of understanding of the concepts. This was exactly what I wanted, to help me understand the concepts behind the numbers. It was structured in a very logical way and I liked the teaching style, very clear in his communication and using real world examples to bring the ideas to life.

Lerne, wie es dir am besten passt!
