Course:
This past summer I was able to acquire a strong understanding of managerial accounting. The course offers a great deal of insight how business is conducted financially on a daily basis. Concepts of activity- based costing, Job costing, Variance analysis and inventory/flexible budgeting are explored; giving students of all educational backgrounds the knowledge to make business savvy decisions. Professional visits throughout the course corresponded with the concepts presented in class. I was able to jump into the class with no previous accounting or business courses and was able to follow the concepts and book well. I chose the managerial accounting class because I wanted to be more confident in financial choices I make not only in business but in life. I found it important to be able to recognize and understand terminology and concepts used in business globally. The class proved to be very beneficial to me, I highly suggest it to winter and summer FNSA students.
Greece:
Our intimate classroom setting in Greece, was the perfect environment to comfortably explore the objectives of managerial accounting. The hotel conference room had a beautiful view with great classroom accommodations to keep classmates and I focused on learning. The 5-star hotel setting took learning to another level.
