Financial Skills That Actually Matter in Business
Real working capital analysis isn't about complicated formulas. It's about reading the signals your business sends every day.
How You'll Actually Learn This
Most finance courses throw theory at you. We start with problems you'll recognize from running a business, then show you the tools that solve them.
Foundation Phase
Start with cash cycle basics. We map where money moves in typical Vietnamese businesses, from inventory purchase to collection.
Analysis Practice
You'll work through twelve real company scenarios. Some are healthy, others show warning signs. Learning to spot the difference is the whole point.
Applied Strategy
Once you can read the numbers, we focus on decisions. How do you improve working capital without disrupting operations? That's where experience matters.
Questions People Actually Ask
Before Starting
Do I need an accounting background?
Not necessarily. If you understand basic profit and loss statements, that's enough. We build from there with clear explanations.
When does the next program begin?
We run cohorts quarterly. The next session starts October 2025, with enrollment opening in August.
During The Program
How much time do I need weekly?
About six hours. Two evening sessions plus homework assignments. Most participants fit this around full-time work schedules.
What if I fall behind on assignments?
Happens to everyone at some point. We record sessions and provide catch-up support. But you'll get more from staying current with your cohort.
After Completion
Will this certificate help my career?
The certificate shows you completed coursework. What helps careers is applying what you learned to solve actual problems at work.
Can I access materials after finishing?
You keep access to all course materials and case studies. We also update content annually, and graduates can review new versions.
Why This Program Exists
Too many businesses fail because owners misread their cash position. They think revenue growth means financial health. Sometimes it does. Often it doesn't.
Real Case Studies
Every scenario comes from actual companies we've worked with. Names changed, but the financial situations are genuine. You learn from real mistakes and real solutions.
Vietnamese Context
Payment cycles, supplier relationships, banking practices — these differ across markets. Our examples reflect how business actually works here.
Practical Application
Theory matters, but we spend most time on interpretation and decision-making. What do these numbers tell you? What should you do about it? Those are harder questions.

Thao Nguyen, Program Director
I spent eight years doing financial turnarounds for manufacturing companies before teaching became my focus. Most businesses I worked with had decent products and solid teams. What nearly killed them was poor working capital management.
That pattern repeated itself so often I started documenting cases. Eventually those became teaching materials. Now we train finance professionals and business owners to spot problems earlier and respond more effectively.
