Are your managers under pressure to deliver services while also controlling budgets, forecasting spend, and explaining variances—without being finance specialists?
Across local government, the NHS, housing, charities, and public bodies, financial pressures are intensifying. Rising costs, tighter funding, and increased scrutiny mean there is less room for error than ever. Yet in many organisations, budget responsibility sits with non-finance managers who have had little or no formal financial training.
That’s where HB Training & Publications International can help.
We are now taking bookings for our half-day virtual training courses designed specifically for budget holders, service managers, and non-finance leaders who need practical, usable financial skills—fast.
What Your Team Will Gain
Our training focuses on real-world challenges and delivers immediate impact. Participants will learn how to:
- Understand budgets and financial reports with confidence
- Improve in-year budget monitoring and forecasting
- Identify and manage risks earlier
- Explain variances clearly to finance teams and senior management
- Strengthen budget ownership and financial accountability
- Make better decisions using financial information
This is jargon-free, practical training based on real public and non-profit sector experience—not generic private-sector theory.
Proven, High-Impact Training
Participants consistently rate our courses highly:

Want Ongoing Support, Not Just Training?
