Expressing his excitement on the commencement of the programme, Prof. Debashis Chatterjee, Director, Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode said, “As the financial world becomes increasingly complex professionals need more than just theoretical knowledge—they require the ability to apply advanced financial concepts to real-world challenges. This unique programme, with its comprehensive curriculum, will help participants gain proficiency in essential aspects of financial analysis and management, including accounting, valuation, corporate finance, investments, and risk management. By bridging theoretical knowledge with practical skills, it will empower professionals to drive positive change and innovation within their organizations.”
