accounting and control. This international and unique learning

Why this programme
Controllers play a central role in a company’s planning and control
processes and financial management. Increasingly, controllers are also
actively involved in top management decisions concerning automation projects and
mergers & acquisitions, and very often they play a key role in
organisational change processes.
As a controller, you do not only need to have a thorough knowledge of your
own field, but you should also acquire an adequate background in certain
management areas, such as strategic management and business information systems.
This programme will prepare you for a more central role in your organisation!

Detailed programme
The Vlerick approach
All candidates for the programme are screened to ensure that the group is
properly matched in terms of background and experience.
To ensure a practical and action-oriented approach, case studies, group work
and integration exercises are the primary teaching methods during the programme.
Participants will be challenged to deal with real-life situations, apply the
appropriate concepts and techniques, decide upon a course of action and discuss
their recommendations in class. In addition, senior executives will address the
group at regular times to illustrate major issues raised during the course with
their personal experience.
Faculty
The Executive Master Class is taught by Vlerick
Faculty, strenghtened with international guest faculty.
