Consultancy in the Department of Accounting, Finance and Risk

We are currently developing our international executive programmes so that we can share our extensive knowledge and experience with international businesses, industry and government departments. A special feature of our suite of programmes is that it focuses on the finance, accounting, and risk management issues faced by international organisations and their host country partners.

The staff who deliver the executive consultancy programmes are experienced practitioners and researchers. In particular, they have research strengths in auditing and financial reporting, oil and gas accounting, corporate finance, public sector accounting and financial management, social accounting and accounting education. Our philosophy is that business education should be research-led and all our executive consultancy programmes reflect the embodiment of quality research.

Our expertise and experience is in providing tailor-made executive consultancy programmes for individual professional needs. One of the strengths of our programmes has been our flexibility in approach to the differing needs and requirements of our clients. Our suite of flexible executive consultancy programmes is shown below under 5 themed headings. We are happy to discuss the cost and length of our programmes with you. The courses can be offered throughout Scotland or within your own country.
