This interactive course enables you to:

  • Identify the impact that budgets could have on motivation and performance,
  • Use a budget to exercise control over the operations of the organisation, and
  • Identify dysfunctional behaviours and management actions.

Gain experience with detailed exercises.

The practical hands-on exercise uses real-world examples, and they are designed to give you real-world knowledge on how to apply daily cost accounting principles.
