This course is designed to enhance the delegates understanding of key performance indicators as well as non-financial performance indicators as a useful part of financial statement analysis and interpretation by management and potential investors.
Delegates are encouraged to not only calculate key performance indicators, but to interpret the ratios based on knowledge gained in the form of a research done on an allocated JSE listed entity. The importance and relevance of non-financial performance indicators will be emphasised as a useful tool to understand the business of the entity, the industry it operates in as well as the understanding of the entity's risk profile.
The following competencies will be assessed:
For trainees as part of the SAIPA Logbook Training Programme:
FAC 2A: Drafting a management report on the analysis of the financial statements - including analysis, planning, evaluation and preparation)
*** VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: For planning simulations throughout the year ***
1) When you book for a simulation, then you have 6 weeks from the purchase date, to complete the course and upload your PoE file onto MySkillsPortal.
2) After the first 6 weeks have passed, the Assessor has 6 further weeks to assess, moderate and complete the assessment report with feedback to yourself and your training officer.
3) For all simulations booked up to and including end October, we will provide feedback on those assessments latest mid December (it might vary depending on when you booked) - that is, if you apply the 6 week submission and 6 week assessment rule [all the rules have been clearly communicated within your course content]
4) For all simulations booked after end October, these assessments will only be made available up to and by February the next year.
5) We can unfortunately not take responsibility for simulations booked very late into the contractual period as the training plan and the way simulations, learning and development are planned, remains the ultimate responsibility of the Training Officer together with the trainee. It would be unfair to cast the later-than-planned (urgent) simulations as a responsibility onto ProBeta Training - especially during the November / December / January period when most training contracts need to be signed off.
6) Urgent PoE assessments: For those trainees who's contracts are due for sign-off between November and December 2020, we do allow a LIMITED NUMBER of fast-track assessments. As communicated per your course instructions, this will however come at an additional fee of R300.00 excl VAT per assessment, to cover administration related time and attendance, urgent and unplanned availability and time and attendance of assessors.
We will as far as humanly possible try and accommodate these requests. Please also note that when you submit your PoE file, a level 4 sign-off or 'competent' sign-off is NOT GUARANTEED. We follow the SAICA and SAIPA assessment criteria very strictly to ensure full compliance on our side and also on the Training Office's side.
If you have any questions / concerns, please discuss with your Training Officer and contact me to discuss further: lberger@probetatraining.co.za
