CDEV 536 - Practical Financial Management

Institution:

Eastern University

Subject:

Community Development

Description:

This introductory financial management course will help the non-financial manager of a nonprofit organization understand and value the crucial contribution of financial analysis tools in making effective decisions to carry out the mission and goals of their organization. It assumes that the functions of accounting and finance will be handled by professionals. It also assumes that all managers -- regardless of professional experience - need to understand the components and analytical techniques involved with financial decision-making. With but a few exceptions, wise organizational decisions will be born or supported through financial analysis. Even more so, an organization fully committed to the long-term will embrace financial control and accountability measures that will mitigate its risks and assure its ability to perform mission objectives.
