Learn the essentials of business finance
Finance training for individuals
Every day, you make decisions that affect your business, your team, and your career. And whether it’s planning a budget, reviewing a forecast or trying to understand a set of numbers in a meeting, one truth keeps coming up:
Most decisions are financial - even if finance isn’t your job.
AAT Essentials fills that gap. These short, practical courses make budgets, reports and financial decisions clearer and far less stressful. Build the confidence to speak the language of business finance and make decisions you can stand behind.
