This is not a job opening. We are inviting finance professionals to participate in a training covering practical aspects of finance and meet leaders in finance in Ethiopia.
Building a new class of finance executives for Ethiopia.
For years, CEOs in Ethiopia have longed for someone they trust to help them understand and manage their company’s financials. Someone who understands the business, can read through financial reports, and turn that into information needed to make critical decisions. Someone who demands quality and timeliness of their team. Someone who can identify risks weeks before they become problems and make course corrections to avoid cash shortages. Someone who can plan, build budgets and set up systems to control a company’s most critical asset – cash.
The time has come to build an elite class of finance executives in Ethiopia. This is the mission of the CFO100. The CFO100 program is a joint effort of RENEW, Global Affairs Canada and the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) to increase the credibility, quantity, and quality of CFOs and finance managers in Ethiopia. The CFO100 program will combine an intensive self-study training around ACCA’s selected papers alongside a practical training from RENEW.
The CFO100 program provides a strong foundation of advanced accounting and real-world financial management skills that will give a participant a career advantage.
