Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) teams play a vital role in helping organisations plan future performance, monitor results, and support strategic decision-making. This programme equips participants with the practical skills needed to develop budgets, forecasts, and financial insights that guide leadership teams.
Participants will learn how to design budgeting frameworks, create rolling forecasts, and analyse performance through variance analysis. The programme also explores scenario planning techniques used by finance teams to evaluate strategic options and manage uncertainty in business environments.
Through mentor-led sessions and practical scenarios, learners practise building forecasting models, interpreting financial performance data, and preparing clear financial narratives for leadership reporting. By the end of the programme, participants will be able to deliver board-ready financial insights that support organisational planning and decision-making.
Participants build budgeting models, rolling forecasts, and variance analysis reports using practical finance scenarios.
Experienced finance mentors guide learners through real FP&A workflows and strategic planning scenarios.
