Companies do not only need to know the costs of different products, but they also need to know whether they gain a profit or realize a loss. We explain how companies use cost information to calculate their profit and assess their profitability. Depending on how companies account for changes in inventories, we distinguish "absorption costing" and "variable costing". In addition, some companies structure their income statement according to the "nature of expense method", while others structure it according to the "cost-of-sales method". We explain both methods and discuss their advantages and disadvantages.

Develop the financial skills needed to make better project decisions, evaluate investments, manage budgets, and control project performance. This course provides project managers and professionals with a practical understanding of financial concepts that directly impact project success, enabling more informed and data-driven decision-making.
The course begins by introducing the fundamentals of financial statements and their role in project management. Learners will explore balance sheets, income statements, and key financial reports while understanding how project managers use financial information to support planning, execution, and performance evaluation.
As the course progresses, learners examine profitability analysis, cash flow management, and financial performance measurement. Topics such as gross margin, cash profit versus book profit, return on investment (ROI), and cost classification help learners understand how projects generate value and how financial performance can be improved.
The course then focuses on investment evaluation and project feasibility analysis. Learners will apply widely used financial techniques including Present Value (PV), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Payback Period analysis to assess project viability and support strategic investment decisions.
Advanced modules cover budgeting, forecasting, earned value analysis, variance analysis, discounted cash flow (DCF) techniques, opportunity cost evaluation, and financial performance monitoring. Learners will gain practical skills for managing project finances proactively and maintaining alignment between project objectives and financial goals.
What makes this course unique is its project-centric approach to finance. Rather than teaching finance in isolation, it demonstrates how financial concepts are applied throughout the project lifecycle. By the end of the course, learners will be able to confidently interpret financial information, evaluate investments, manage project budgets, forecast outcomes, and contribute to strategic business decisions through effective financial management.
Como un mercadólogo, tenemos claro que nuestra función principal en las empresas es identificar las necesidades del mercado y con base en ellas establecer estrategias de compra – venta que causen impacto y satisfagan las necesidades de los consumidores. Éste es un reto importante, pero además de ser creativos en la definición de estas estrategias, tenemos que tener en cuenta el desarrollo que a través de los últimos años ha tenido el Internet y atrás de él las redes sociales. Es por ello que hay que estar conscientes de la importancia que las redes van teniendo y cómo pueden ayudar a la promoción de los productos y servicios que como proveedor estamos ofreciendo.
En este curso podrás conocer cómo se ejecuta una estrategia de redes sociales y las consideraciones que debes de tener para controlar y medir el desempeño de tu estrategia. Podrás identificar cómo evaluar si es posible gestionar la estrategia con recursos propios, si es necesario utilizar una agencia o si es apropiado hacerlo con un esquema mixto; también reconocerás la importancia de realizar una escucha activa y las herramientas que te permitirán desarrollar esta actividad, las plataformas más convenientes y la frecuencia más apropiada para tu negocio, los indicadores clave de medir y cómo hacerlo y finalmente las técnicas para optimizar el desempeño de tu estrategia de redes sociales y lograr tus objetivos.
Seguramente te serán de gran utilidad dentro del ámbito de la mercadotecnia.
In this course, you will:
- Explore the applications of GANs and examine them wrt data augmentation, privacy, and anonymity

Build a comprehensive knowledge base and gain hands-on experience in GANs. Train your own model using PyTorch, use it to create images, and evaluate a variety of advanced GANs.
This Specialization provides an accessible pathway for all levels of learners looking to break into the GANs space or apply GANs to their own projects, even without prior familiarity with advanced math and machine learning research.
Explore software security for web applications concepts without installing anything!
This course is designed for intermediate learners, providing a solid foundation of common skills in software security. Learners will build an understanding of some of the most common software security techniques currently employed. The modules in this course cover front-end security, back-end security, as well as passwords and authentication. At the end of the course, learners will be able to directly implement security techniques they've learned to their own softwares.
To allow for a truly hands-on, self-paced learning experience, this course is video-free. Assignments contain short explanations with images and suggested exploration examples, building a deeper understanding by doing. You'll benefit from instant feedback from a variety of assessment items along the way, gently progressing from quick understanding checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and un-scrambling answer blocks) to small, approachable exercises that take minutes instead of hours.

The goal of hiring managers is not just to hire people who need a job. It’s to hire people who believe in their organization, its mission and the work that’s involved in the job position. Every hiring manager knows: Hire people to do a job and they’ll work for your money. Hire people who believe in the work and they’ll work for their passion.
And this is not a case of “fake it until you make it.” You have to be genuine about your belief in an organization and its mission. That means you have to have researched the industry, the company, and the position – and be able to show how your goals in life align with the company’s mission. Having done so will shape the impression you convey as a candidate, the way you answer traditional questions, and the way you demonstrate that you’re the right candidate for the job.
This course is the second in a five-course specialization. We recommend that courses #1, #2 and #3 be taken in sequence. Course #4 - on resume and cover letter writing - can be taken in any sequence, while course #5 is the capstone for the specialization as a whole.
This course can be thought of as "Interviewing I", while course #3 is "Interviewing II." Course #3 covers more advanced interview formats, including behavioral and situational interviews - along with the special case of telephone screenings. The logic for including telephone screenings - which happen at the start of the interview process - late in this specialization on interviewing is that those screenings, while happening early in the process, involve all the skills that you'll learn from course #1 through course #3.
As for this course, it will teach you how to:
1. Do thorough research on a company of your choice.
2. Prepare for those critical first 3-5 minutes of an interview (when many recruiters say an interview is either won or lost).
3. Prepare for the all important "Tell Me About Yourself" question.
4. Prepare for traditional interview questions.
5. Use strategies for handling the salary question. We don't teach you salary negotiation techniques, but we do teach you how to avoid putting yourself in a weak negotiation position.
6. Prepare an elevator speech - all three variations.
7. Use persuasive speech techniques to present professional accomplishments and qualifications in a manner that conveys benefits to a potential employer.
8. Use persuasive speech techniques to convince a potential employer of your interest, motivation and preparation for a particular position.
9. Adapt your nonverbal communication style to the expectations of English-speaking interviewers.
