Ratings from participants after completing their course, across all courses by this trainer.
“Understanding the components of the annual accounts better and also looking at them from a bank's point of view. Working with them more often so I can form a picture of where an organisation stands more quickly.”
"A pleasant course in which you get a good impression of the highlights of annual reporting and annual accounts (accounting policies, balance sheet, P&L, cash flow statement) in two half-days. Plenty of scope for interaction and specific questions. You don't really do practice exercises, but in my view working out cases in detail is not the purpose of this course either. Given my background I already had quite a lot of prior knowledge and I mainly appreciated being able to refresh some theory here and there, dot the i's and put forward specific matters I have come across in my current work."
“This course gives you basic knowledge of annual accounts, the balance sheet and the profit and loss account. You learn how they are structured, what the figures mean and which choices lie behind them. The course is practical and substantial; during the course you are challenged to practise the material with a number of assignments. In-depth material is provided so you can take it further. An excellent foundation!”
"A pleasant course, in which time is taken to explain things. I also found the pace at which the material was covered agreeable."
"A highly competent instructor, clear explanations and practical examples that were well explained."
"An interesting course, in which practical examples are discussed alongside the theory. Luis is a highly qualified trainer."
Wherever suits you: at your office, at one of our training locations or online. You also choose the date.
Yes. Before the course we discuss with you what the group can already do, where things go wrong in practice and what should be different afterwards. The trainer uses examples and exercises from your own work.
That depends on the course. For a skills course we prefer to work with a small group, so that everyone can really practise. If more people are involved, we schedule several groups or set up a fixed programme.
You get a fixed price for the whole group, in a tailored quotation. For a group this works out cheaper than registering everyone individually. For comparison: a place on the scheduled course costs EUR 625,- excl. VAT per participant.
Yes. For in-company courses we deliver the training in the language of your choice, Dutch or English. Mention it in your request.
Yes, every participant receives a certificate of attendance afterwards.
