Testimonies
“Before I attended the course, I felt that I really needed more knowledge on the overall big picture of Financing. I feel confident that this course gave me that overall picture that I was looking for. I felt that the trainer imparted good knowledge, but that it proceeded at a somewhat mundane pace. Also, I felt that a better understanding of the subject could be gained from more hands-on work.” – SW, Law, General Manager, FGV.
“I initially felt unsure of what I was going to learn. However, during the course I learned a lot of significant things about finance, budgets and costs. After going through this course I feel confident enough to go into the details with my CFO to get to learn more about the details finance matters in the company. The trainer is very well-versed on his knowledge of the subject. I particularly enjoyed the “stock trading game. I would very much like to attend courses in the future pertaining to topics like Presentation, and Negotiation.” – Ahmad, Tariq Orogenic Holdings Sdn. Bhd.
“I felt that I had a very minimum of knowledge on the structure of finance before I attended this course. During this course though, I felt that I gained a very significant overall understanding of financial matters, and after, I learned more about various different skills and their long-term rewards. I felt that the trainer was good in his presentation. If given the opportunity, I would certainly like to attend more advanced courses on the subject.” Alfred, DHL.
“My understanding of financial statements was once lacking before the course. I’m glad that during the course I learned how to effectively read financial statements. It is knowledge that would most definitely help me to better understand my company’s annual report. I thought the trainer’s performance was excellent. If there are any other courses in future, especially those on Directorship, I would love to attend.” – Executive Director, Ho Wah Genting Berhad.
