1-year course of study in Management Control: Finance
Our degree programs support all executives aiming to become agents of change in their companies and businesses. Driving change is the primary goal of management control. It integrates efforts to master the cost/value ratio, deploy strategy in day-to-day procedures, and incorporate employee feedback and motivation. The finance function is becoming increasingly essential to companies that are now committed to management based on creating value for shareholders, and choose to use this method to manage their organizations. The integration of new International Financial Reporting Standards provides the opportunity to respond to these 2 major goals.
Our aim is to make this landmark program a success through the quality of its participants, and to train a new generation of excellent managers.
