While in her role as Blended Learning Manager at Babson Executive Education (BEE), Bonnie worked with Professor Chris Hennessey to create an online, pre-work module for professionals with varying degrees of financial training. It serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding and interpreting financial statements. We were lucky enough to find the show notes from when Paula Deen covered this module on her show, At Home With Paula Deen!
