Excellent presentation of financial information that Board Members need to be able to read and interpret in order to fulfill their responsibilities.
Excellent overview with practical information. Debi is extremely knowledgeable about the topics and the format was easy to follow and very helpful.
Very basic course. May be good for someone without any financial knowledge but not really suitable for a board member
Enjoyable course for an overview of key financial statements. The concepts are simply laid out.
This Course is good.I recommend all freshers to go through this course.
