Rutgers Business School Executive Education announces new program: "Fundamentals of Finance for Managers"

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J., March 30, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Understanding financial data can be a challenging and daunting task, especially for those with no formal financial background. However, to succeed in today's complex business environment, even managers who are not in their company's finance department need to understand the language and tools of finance. Managers and other professionals require a robust understanding of financial statements, departmental budgets, forecasts and methods of evaluating potential investments and projects.

Program Manager Jennie Fine said this program was developed in direct response to market need.

"Fundamentals of Finance for Managers' prepares managers for personal and organizational success by providing practical, hands-on coursework and exercises," she added.

This program was designed and implemented for managers who supervise finance professionals and wish to understand their work a bit better, and professionals with an interest in and a need to understand, forecast and present financial information.

"Upon completing the course, learners will be better prepared to work with their financial teams, evaluate financial history, and assess potential projects and investments for their Return on Investment," Fine said. "Students will gain fluency in the language of finance, enabling them to present their proposals and ideas more effectively both internally and externally."

This three-day program will leave you better prepared to understand and present financial information to others within your organization and see how your department fits into the financial picture of your entire organization.
