Course overview

Financial literacy, made visual and unforgettable

Does this sound familiar? Then this workshop is for you:

  • You hesitate when presented with financial reports and accounting jargon.
  • You hold yourself back in workplace financial conversations; you stay quiet in meetings where you might otherwise contribute.
  • Previous finance training you've tried involved rote memorisation and didn't stick; nothing truly shifted.

Let's Talk Finance uses the Color Accounting Learning System — a visual, kinaesthetic method that replaces memorisation with understanding. In one day you build the whole picture of how business works, using colour, structure, and hands-on practice.

  • 01Gain confidence to read and interpret financial reports clearly.
  • 02Communicate effectively with colleagues, bosses, and stakeholders at all levels.
  • 03Make smarter decisions by understanding the story behind the numbers.

Stop nodding along in finance meetings

One day, RM980, HRD Corp claimable — and only 24 seats for 29 September in Klang Valley.

Course curriculum

Three modules. One complete picture of how business works.

The programme is built around the BaSIS Board™ — a physical, colour-coded model of an accounting system that participants build and use themselves.

Module 01

The Foundation

This session covers the accounting concepts needed for an overview of accrual accounting.

Learning context and the balance sheet

  • learning purpose: themes, perspective, and organisational systems
  • uses of funds: assets and asset recognition criteria
  • sources of funds: liabilities and equity
  • the accounting duality: why a balance sheet balances and the accounting equation
  • financing obligations: distinctions between debt and equity

The income statement and double entry accounting

  • basic transactions and double-entry accounting
  • deducing the BaSIS Board™: why we need income and expenses
  • the income statement and how it connects to the balance sheet
  • introducing accrual accounting: receivables and payables
  • the value cycle of business

Module 02

The Popup Board: accounting for business scenarios

This hands-on learning session reinforces the foundation with additional accounting transactions using our popup board. This kinaesthetic learning approach is based on a business simulation to give participants a comprehensive understanding of accrual accounting, including:

  • debt repayments
  • asset and inventory purchases
  • cost of sales
  • revenue recognition — difference between income and cash flow
  • prepayments and deferrals
  • debits and credits
  • depreciation
  • PO's, ledgers and journal entries

Module 03

Telling a Business Story

This session completes the accounting foundation by exploring financial reporting. Participants compile the Trial Balance from their business simulation exercise and then produce their income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement.

Then we

  • explore the traditional financial statements and reporting layout
  • tell a story of the business through these financial reports
  • introduce EBIT, EBITDA, US GAAP and IFRS

Testimonials from across the region

Pham Thi Phuong Hang
I have attended various kind of financial training program & I find that the Color Accounting course is unique. The one idea that I am really impressed with while attending this training was the “Pineapple” analogy which is a paradigm shift for me in looking at accounting at different perspective or “point of view”. This concept impacted me like a big bang to my brain. It makes me change the way I think and communicate using the same jargon with finance team. The other learning point was the concept of the relationship between Balance Sheet & the Income Statement. The facilitator has made it so simple to understand.

Michelle Hiong
The 2 days program of Color Accounting that I attended, gave me a total different perspective of accounting. The program was easy for me to understand about accounting, its accounting terms and the interpretation of account statements. I now understand very much better on the concept and its application to my daily business. I can now relate and communicate in accounting language with my accounting team well. Analyzing my business accounting had never been easier.

Cheryl Leong
I did not realize that accounting can be told as a more meaningful story of a company's financial situation from the company's point of view. I have been learning accounting from my undergraduate and postgraduate studies, and even from YouTube videos, but nothing beats the clear explanation by the facilitator that is easy to comprehend. I would recommend anyone taking up this course to learn how to speak the accounting language, especially those who hesitate when it comes to numbers and reading financial statements.

The Color Accounting program is really good. It teaches the very basic of accounting principles. I have been reading financial statement all these years and yet I still learned a lot from the sharing during the class. I enrolled for the program even though I have been exposed to accounting practices for years. In this training I learned the very basic of accounting that in my opinion everyone must understand if they are serious about their business growth. I want to thank the facilitator, his ability to explain a complex concept and make it into a simple way to understand is incredible. Terima Kasih!

This is probably one of the best workshop I've joined so far for couple of reasons, for me Accounting is always a complicated topics especially when it comes to financial report there were always some elements that it was hard to understand. The trainer was excellent, the workshop materials provided and the delivery method was brilliant and very informative. The whole workshop were just great, and every single participants were kept involved and engaged even though it was online and I did really enjoy it. The language and structure used on this workshop make it easier for me to understand accounting better in a different perspective from what I used to, and now I can easily explain to others about financial statements with more confident. I have recommended this workshop to some of my friends that I know that needed it!

Vania Cheryl
I find the Color Accounting program was very informative, insightful and invaluable. As a business student who also learns accounting at university, I've tried reading through the accounting textbooks, but the reason behind how the balance sheet or income statement is structured or the links between the different entries in a ledger is something that I've never really understood. It was all very confusing, and often times, even downright difficult to process. Taking the Color Accounting program really helps me gain a new, clearer perspective and understanding towards accounting, be able to apply the concepts better and even explain it to others both simply and comprehensibly. Thank you, Color Accounting!

I truly believe that understanding accounting is crucial in understanding business and I would like to learn directly from the author. This will also help me in finding a good company to invest my money in stock market. After attending the Color Accounting class, I felt this course is definitely one of the best courses that I have ever attended. I would recommend it to all students and all business professionals!
