Level 3: Debt Management
Course Overview
When customers don't pay you, it affects your ability to pay your own bills. The course
details what's required to implement legal recovery processes through the courts and other
means of getting the money in. Insolvency and Bankruptcy are explained, and the means of
ensuring you are able to follow the legal process, in order to get the highest dividend from
administrators and receivers in the unfortunate event one of your customers falls into this
area. There is practical advice on using factoring services or invoice discounting, engaging
bailiffs and private debt collection companies, and how to communicate with customers who
claim to have payment difficulties. In short, this credit control and debt management course
gives you a solid grounding in effective credit control and debt management, and helps you
understand what processes and tools are available to proactively avoid financial problems.
You will be introduced to the principles and disciplines required to maintain financial
equilibrium
