Learning how to value a company or appraise a capital expenditure are just a couple of the courses being offered by CIMA in a new range of Online Courses. The courses are able to be taken any time, anywhere, and any place by finance and business professionals. The courses were devised after research showed that CIMA members wanted a CPD tool that was functional, high quality and flexible. Courses are open to all finance and business professionals, with discounted prices being offered for CIMA members.
When undertaking a course, unlimited access is granted for a three month period. This allows courses to be viewed when convenient - at work, during lunch breaks, in the evenings or on weekends - and at the end a certificate of completion will be issued.
Some of the benefits include competitive pricing, time saving, convenience, and the fully interactive format of the courses. All speakers on the courses are highly experienced with extensive industry experience.
Robert Jelly, CIMA Director of Education, commented, ‘It is vital for members of a professional body such as CIMA to remain at the forefront of best practice. We are delighted to launch a product that is designed to fit in with people’s increasingly busy work schedules and which will be valuable to all finance and business professionals, not just CIMA members. The quality of the CIMA brand will be reassuring to employers wishing to ensure their people remain up to date in their professional development.’
