South Africa's economy has been completely overhauled since the advent of democracy in 1994. Bold macro-economic reforms have boosted competitiveness, growing the economy, creating jobs and opening South Africa up to world markets. While South Africa's financial and industrial first economy has an established infrastructure and an economic base with great potential for further growth and development, its informal second economy presents both untapped potential and a developmental challenge for the country. A broad understanding of economics and econometrics adds to people’s ability to put programmes in place towards economic growth.
CE at UP also offers courses in financial management and accounting. There are general courses providing a broad overview of accounting practice and more specifically, tailored courses aimed at a niche audience. Areas such as taxation, microfinance and auditing are covered – and candidates for the CIA professional examination receive training to support them in obtaining their professional qualification. Statistics are covered in a course that provides managers with a general understanding of the role of statistics in a management environment.
