The effective accounts assistant

Administrators and support managers are increasingly required to take a proactive role in managing finance for their areas. They are expected to prepare and manage a wide range of financial information and systems - often without any training or development. This highly practical programme has been designed to meet these needs. It is suitable for people who want to build on their skills and knowledge and have at least two years experience. You'll gain financial insights and heaps of tips that you'll be able to apply as soon as you return to work. You'll also understand how to apply the latest technology to save time and money.
