    IIM-C offers courses in accounting

    Filed under:

    The Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta (IIM-C), has responded to the demand for managers from Indian companies seeking to set up offices internationally, and has introduced this year a finance and accounting course for executives to prepare them in international accounting standards.

    The institute is also planning to introduce courses that help bridge the gap between Indian and international methodology in operations.

    Most executive education programmes at IIM-C, carried out under the consultancy and management development programs (CMDP) wing, are short-duration programmes (5 days to 1 month), or 6-month long-duration programmes that intend to give a larger perspective about certain areas of finance or management.
