“ Unlike finance professionals or
Accountants, being an HR Professional
for 20+ years, it was difficult for me to
comprehend financial reporting. But Prof.
Hariharan with his extensive experience,
up-to-date knowledge of subject matter,
professional anecdotes and amazing
training delivery style, has made
complete CMA course very interesting
and comprehensible. I recommend
Emerge Management Training Center,
for their high standards, namely
exhaustive course coverage and tight
