Training on Treasury Management for Non-Treasury Professionals

Treasury management is central to organizational financial health, influencing cash flow, liquidity, funding, and risk management. While traditionally specialized, treasury principles affect finance, HR, operations, procurement, and strategic decision-making across departments. Understanding treasury enables non-treasury professionals to make informed contributions, enhance collaboration, and support effective financial management.

This 5-day course demystifies treasury for non-treasurers, providing practical knowledge of cash flow management, liquidity optimization, funding strategies, financial risk, and corporate treasury operations. Participants will learn how treasury decisions impact payroll, budgeting, procurement, and operational planning, and how to interpret treasury reports and metrics to support organizational objectives.

Through interactive exercises, case studies, and scenario-based learning, participants will develop the confidence to engage with treasury teams, contribute to decision-making, and apply treasury concepts in their functional roles. By the end of the program, participants will have a solid understanding of treasury’s role in organizational performance and be able to integrate its principles into day-to-day work.
