A trainer who is passionate about their field and a very effective teacher. The explanations are clear and the terminology is carefully chosen. The course is dynamic and ‘encourages’ active participation. The course content is extensive but enables participants to grasp the accounting and financial topics that may be required in a business setting. As the concepts are wide-ranging and varied, the course is nevertheless quite demanding in terms of concentration and commitment.
