Accounting for Non-accounting Professionals

Session in Brief

Accounting is the communication of information about a business or other type of organization (such as a charity or government) so that individuals can assess their financial health and prospects. In today’s world, information is king. It is not possible to make appropriate decisions on time without accurate financial information. Accounting provides financial information to organizations to make financial decisions.  Non-accounting professionals are also required to understand financial data and information for proper decision making. Hence, the session has been designed to make the non-accounting professionals understand accounting processes and their applications in decision making. The session is expected to cover understanding basic financial statements, financial ratios, and cash flow calculations.
