Finance and Accounting for Non-Financial Executives
“What a great experience! This was my first time taking a course at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and I have to say I was impressed. Not only did I obtain wider views on financial topics in general, but I walked away from the class with a better understanding of the finance and accounting decisions and reporting that are taking place within my company. The instructors were knowledgeable and experienced, the Fluno Center was very clean and inviting, and the food was absolutely outstanding. Now that I’ve been introduced to this exceptional organization, I plan to return for the rest of the courses I’ll need to earn my certificate. I’m confident that my newfound knowledge will both add value to my company and deepen my personal perception.”

“I am responsible for global financial planning and budgeting within my organization. When it became apparent that I needed a stronger knowledge of finances and additional tools to better understand my role, I began to seek out an appropriate course to help me…and then the ‘Finance and Accounting for Non-Financial Executives’ brochure landed on my desk.
My company will approve training anywhere in the world if I think it is appropriate, and I was so glad I chose the University of Wisconsin-Madison Executive Education — my experience was unparalleled. Not only did I enjoy and learn a great deal from the course, but the Fluno Center was EXCELLENT! Despite my hectic schedule and the exhausting travel that went along with it, the setting was a comforting retreat, enabling me to feel relaxed and rested during my entire stay. My room was very nice and the housekeeping staff was great when I needed assistance. I ate well — the food was FABULOUSLY presented… and delicious! The front desk team was exceptionally cooperative, pleasant and accommodating. I felt incredibly welcomed!
All in all, I had a wonderful experience at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and it has given me renewed vigor in pursuing additional executive education programs — I’ll be back!”
