Overview
The CFO Leadership program from Singapore Management University is intended to be completed in one year over six academic sessions. Each academic session comprises eight consecutive days of full-time classes. Participants are expected to be able to attend classes full-time throughout each academic session and the six sessions should be completed within one year.
The programme is taught by a multi-disciplinary faculty, many of whom have not only PhD degrees from reputable universities in the USA, UK and Australia, but also years of practical experience in the public accounting, finance and corporate sectors. They are also excellent teachers in the classroom, and continue to research or consult in their respective fields.
Upon successful completion of the programme, participants will receive the postgraduate Master of Science in CFO Leadership degree awarded by Singapore Management University.
