​
Online: Financial Accounting & Finance Courses- Mandatory
​
The Financial Accounting & Finance Online Pre-Courses are accessed through the link shown in the flyer.
​
These courses are mandatory and you are required to complete the designated work prior to Sunday 11 September 2016, 23:29 (UK Time.) If you have not studied Accounting or Finance before we would encourage you to take your time and begin early.
​
There are also two optional online courses in Business Mathematics and Spreadsheets which you have the opportunity to access at an additional cost.
​
How will scores from the online course impact your final LBS Grade?
The scores from the online Finance course will have no impact on your actual course grades. The scores will simply indicate to the Faculty (and yourself) the level you are starting on and what in particular you find more challenging.
​
For the FA course however, if you fail to complete the pre-test and sections 1-5 before the deadline stated above, your overall participation grade for FA will be negatively impacted.
​
Both courses should be completed with relevant tests taken by 11th September 2016.
​
On-Campus
The on-campus pre-programme sessions led by Teaching Assistants will include Accounting, Business statistics (Management Analysis & Systems) and Finance for those without a quantitative or business background.
​
Please note that due to limited space - the programme office cannot guarantee a place to every signee and will prioritise those who most closely meet the requirements.
​
The deadline for registering your interest for the on campus pre-programme sessions was Friday 29 July 2016, 09:00 (UK Time.)
​
We will inform students who have obtained a place by Friday 5 August 2016.
​
Please note: If you do not receive an email from Gloria Nsubuga (Programme Manager) by Friday 5 August, this means that you did not obtain a place and will therefore not be able to attend the session/s.
​
You can contact Gloria if you have any further questions regarding the pre-courses.
