Peer into the future to envision how, why and where the finance organization will succeed.
It took a pandemic to uproot those of us working in accounting and finance. In the span of a few years, all of us lived through transforming how and where we worked. That experience positions you well to tackle the future. In this course, you will learn about the future of finance and the challenges that lay ahead.
You will peer into the future to answer how, why, and where the finance organization will succeed and add value by leveraging people and technology. You will learn about emerging imperatives of sustainability and data as the next frontiers of finance. Finally, you will explore the new skill sets and communication mindset you will need to adapt to ensure stakeholders understand the value proposition offered by the “new” finance function.

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
Great course to reflect on the emerging & required change mindset post the first few pandemic years. Revisit, reassess , revaluate and reapply.
This course had several practical ways to make and influence change and leadership in organizations
Great - thank Blair
