FSL is Your Partner in Financial Training
for Senior Non-Financial Managers

In today’s fast-paced corporate environment, your senior managers need more than just technical expertise, they need to be able to communicate effectively, make informed decisions and drive results. Finance as a Second Language (FSL) is specifically designed to meet this need, making it the go-to program for HR business partners and Learning & Development (L&D) managers committed to developing their employees.

Why Choose FSL?

Unlike generic finance courses, FSL is uniquely developed for senior non-financial managers. We break down complex financial concepts into relatable, easy-to-understand language that empowers senior managers to bridge the gap between financial data and strategic decision-making.

Elevate Organizational Strength

When senior managers understand finance, they can help to build strong business cases, more efficient budget management and improve cross-departmental collaboration. This translates to improved team performance and creates a high-performing organization.

Practical and Actionable Learning

FSL’s program isn’t just theory. Through hands-on exercises and real-world examples, your senior managers will practice applying financial concepts to everyday scenarios. This ensures knowledge retention and immediate application back at work. The knowledge transfer will be easily observable.

Interactive Hybrid Learning Environment

We understand that busy managers need training that is engaging and relevant. FSL’s unique approach keeps learners motivated, fostering an interactive environment that encourages questions and collaborative learning.

Benefits for HR and L&D

Seamless Integration into Development Plans: FSL is designed to fit smoothly into your existing employee development initiatives, increasing business knowledge and closing skill gaps.

Proven Results and Testimonials: With a track record of success across many industries, FSL has helped organizations improve their financial literacy initiatives and equip employees with the tools they need to succeed.

Easily observe learning transfer from classroom to real-world workplace application of finance concepts.

We partner with HR and L&D managers to provide all the resources needed to evaluate progress, measure outcomes and achieve training goals.

What Leaders Say:

FSL is designed to provide valuable insights and practical skills in financial literacy.
Here's what leaders have to say about FSL's benefits to their organizations:

“It was important for Longs to develop – at the director level and above – an understanding of how we make money and create value for our shareholders. Toshi’s program resulted in better day-to-day decision making, increased accountability, and improved collaboration among business units. I would absolutely recommend it to any organization.”

Steve McCann

Retired EVP/CFO
Longs Drugs

“I recommend to our training department that managers that are promoted should automatically be enrolled in this program. I think this would be ideal for people at the director level, as an optional or maybe even a mandatory course. It would really, really improve everyone’s financial understanding and enable much more sophisticated conversation with the senior leadership teams.”

Robert Bae

Director of Content Development
LexisNexis

“Toshi’s program is one of the best courses I’ve been to. I’m really pleased I got the whole team here. I think we go away from this armed with a lot of resources to be better in business. We go back already speaking the same language. It really cuts down on the learning curve. We can just immediately jump into doing analysis and improve our business as a result.”

Bradley Pratt

Chairman and CEO, TheraCell. Inc.
