Welcome
Welcome to the Accounting For Leaders unit of the University of Bedfordshire MBA Programme. This handbook contains all of the advice and information you need to successfully complete your work on this unit. It should be read in conjunction with the overall Programme Handbook, which you should have already received.
The handbook serves two main purposes: * It summarises the key concepts and provides you with a framework and a map for the unit. * It provides you information about learning resources, infrastructure and virtual learning environment for studying MBA with the University of Bedfordshire.
Learning resources at the University of Bedfordshire
While at master’s level it is not possible to find one textbook with all the information you could possibly need, and indeed we expect you to read around widely, nevertheless the following learning resources are available and recommended for studying this unit: * Each unit will be available as a BREO site website. This will provide administrative information on the unit such as when to hand in your assignments, details concerning the examination, and so on, in addition to the learning material. * You will be provided with the downloadable and online learning materials specially developed by the University of Bedfordshire for this unit. This learning content will be accessible and available in BREO, the University’s virtual learning environment. * The BREO sites also provide a means of communication – with your tutor and with other fellow students. * Recommended textbooks for each unit will provide the major source of learning and improving your knowledge database. All the major communications will occur through BREO using Live classrooms,
