Welcome to CNA
A practical, four-week course in building and managing a budget for a department or small business — not the theory of financial planning, but the actual spreadsheet-and-meeting work of setting a budget, tracking it through the year, and explaining why it went off track when it does.
Every technique taught is applied to a realistic budgeting scenario during the course.
setting realistic revenue and cost projections based on historical data and business plans
projecting forward using trends, seasonality, and known upcoming changes
comparing actual results to budget and identifying what's driving the difference
budgeting for cash timing, not just profit, to avoid short-term cash shortfalls
communicating a budget and its assumptions clearly to managers or stakeholders
