As project budgets grow and decisions have more consequences, having a clear business case is a game‑changer. Which is why the Better Business Cases Foundation and Practitioner course in London is important. It’s for professionals who require clarity, rigour, and a practical toolkit to secure investments.
Let’s delve into just who benefits most from these courses and why.
Finance Professionals: Beyond Numbers to Strategic Influence
Finance teams are already experts at cost‑benefit, budgets, and forecasts. What the Better Business Cases training adds is a framework, the Five Case Model, that helps anchor those figures in strategic context. You’ll learn to support investments that aren’t just affordable but truly valuable.
You’ll gain confidence presenting cases through the strategic, economic, commercial, management and financial lenses. Finance pros emerge able to shape discussions around ROI, affordability, and confidence in delivery. It’s less about spreadsheets and more about strategic delivery.
Project and Programme Managers: From Delivery to Strategic Alignment
For PMs transitioning from task delivery to influencing strategic results, these courses are a bridge. At the Foundation level, you’re introduced to the Five Case Model – Strategic, Economic, Commercial, Financial, and Management – so you’re able to speak the language of value and governance.
Practitioner pushes it further: you’ll be applying the framework to actual problems, and in the mix are option appraisal, risk management, benefits realisation, and procurement planning areas of focus. That means you can transition from delivery-centric to decision-making that is leadership-valued.
PMO Roles: Governance, Assurance, and Smarter Decisions
PMO practitioners, such as Analysts, Managers, and Directors, are at the centre of ensuring that successful business cases prevail. These courses provide PMOs with the understanding to review proposals with clarity and confidence.
You’ll transition from administration control to strategic assurance, seeing gaps early on, asking the right questions, and enabling smarter, evidence-driven decisions across portfolios or whole programmes. It’s about taking governance out of paperwork; it becomes a lever for improved investment decisions.
Other Beneficiaries: Executive and Policy-Level Stakeholders
Beyond finance and project teams, the framework is relevant to senior leaders, policy advisors, and governance board members. You’ll gain a shared vocabulary and confidence – clearer justification, aligned objectives, stronger scrutiny.
In Summary
Whether you’re working with numbers, handing over projects, managing portfolios, or taking strategic decisions, the Better Business Cases Foundation and Practitioner course in London gives you a consistent, professional model based on HM Treasury’s Five Case framework. You’ll develop influence, not simply finish tasks.
