About the course

The accounting function provides timely, relevant and accurate information to the management of a business. This information is also used to assess the financial ‘health’ of a business and to make plans for the future. Accountants are involved in making many decisions necessary for the efficient operation of a business. Therefore, a well-run accounting function is critically important to the long-term management of a business.
