The course uses a “fun, unique, gamified technique and virtual breakaway rooms” to help participants self-discover answers and retain the learning. This course can also be tailored to a specific organization’s financial terminology, reports, and transactions, which would require discussing requirements with HR and obtaining financial information from the finance team.
