Autumn 2025 Course Schedule
We're opening registrations for our September intake. These programmes run from late autumn through spring 2026, designed around working professionals who need flexible learning without sacrificing depth.
What We're Running This September
Each programme is capped at eighteen participants. Registration opens in July, and historically we fill about three weeks before start dates.
Financial Communication for Team Leads
Built for managers who need to present budget proposals, explain variance reports, and translate financial data for non-finance colleagues. Less theory, more practical scenarios you'll actually face.
Stakeholder Finance Dialogue
For those who present to boards, investors, or senior leadership. We work on simplifying complex financial narratives and handling the difficult questions that inevitably come up during reviews.
Gregor Thistlewood
Lead Instructor
Spent twelve years explaining finance strategy to operations teams at mid-sized manufacturers. Now helps others do the same without the jargon overload.
Belinda Knightbridge
Workshop Facilitator
Former CFO turned educator. Knows exactly where communication breaks down between finance departments and everyone else because she's been on both sides.
Who's Actually Teaching These Sessions
Both instructors come from finance roles where poor communication caused real problems. They've presented to sceptical boards, explained budget cuts to worried teams, and negotiated funding with investors who asked uncomfortable questions.
That practical background shapes how they teach. Expect real scenarios, not textbook examples. And honest feedback about what works and what doesn't when you're standing in front of people who need answers.
