Financial Modelling That Actually Makes Sense

Build models that work in the real world, not just in theory

Forget the textbook formulas and academic exercises. We teach you how to build financial models the way they're actually used in business. Models that help people make decisions. Models that stand up to scrutiny. And yeah, models that get you hired.

Our program starts in August 2026. But here's the thing—we only take 24 students per cohort. Not because we're being precious about it, but because that's how many people we can actually work with properly.

What You'll Actually Learn

This isn't a course where you watch videos and tick boxes. It's structured around real projects that mirror what you'd face in an actual finance role. You'll mess up. You'll rebuild. That's how this works.

1

Foundation Models

We start with three-statement models because that's where everyone starts. You'll build income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements that actually link together without errors. Sounds basic, but most people get this wrong. We make sure you don't.

Weeks 1-4

Valuation Techniques

DCF, comparable company analysis, precedent transactions. You'll learn when to use each one and when not to trust any of them. Because valuation is as much art as science, and the numbers only tell part of the story.

Weeks 5-9

Scenario Planning

Here's where it gets interesting. You'll model different business scenarios—best case, worst case, and the messy reality that usually happens. This is about preparing for uncertainty, not pretending you can predict the future.

Weeks 10-14
4

Client Project Work

You'll work on an actual business case. Could be a merger analysis, a growth projection, or an investment evaluation. The brief comes from a real company (anonymised), and your work needs to stand up to real scrutiny.

Weeks 15-18

Who's Been Through This

These are actual people who went through our program. They started in different places, had different backgrounds, but they all left knowing how to build models that matter. Here's what their journey looked like.

Now at Regional Bank

Came in with an accounting background but no Excel skills worth mentioning. Spent the first three weeks rebuilding everything because his formulas kept breaking. By week twelve, he was the one helping others debug their models. That's the progression we expect.

Freya Lindquist reviewing financial models

Freya Lindquist

Financial Analyst, Tech Startup

Had a science degree and absolutely no finance experience. Started asking questions that made us rethink how we explained concepts. She struggled with the valuation module, asked for extra sessions, and eventually built one of the strongest DCF models we've seen from a student.

How We Actually Run This

No lecture halls. No PowerPoint marathons. We work in small groups, on real problems, with instructors who've actually built these models in their careers.

Classes run Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 6:30 to 9:00pm, plus Saturday morning workshops. Total commitment is about 15 hours per week including your own project work.

Direct Feedback

You submit work. We review it properly. Not automated feedback—actual human review of your models. We'll tell you where you went wrong and why it matters. Sometimes we'll make you rebuild from scratch.

Industry Tools

You'll work in Excel like a professional would. No shortcuts, no plugins, no templates that hide the actual logic. We want you to understand what's happening under the hood.

Real Business Context

Every model you build addresses an actual business question. What's this company worth? Should they expand? Can they afford this acquisition? These are the questions you'll need to answer in your career.
