These are the real problems analysts face daily. We've seen them countless times in corporate finance departments across Australia.
Teams using different formatting conventions create models that are impossible to review or update. We teach standardized approaches that work across departments and make collaboration seamless.
Nothing's worse than presenting a model with circular references or #REF errors. Our systematic approach to model building prevents these issues before they happen, saving hours of debugging.
Most analysts struggle with creating flexible scenarios. We show you how to build models that can handle multiple assumptions without breaking, using proper sensitivity analysis techniques.
Finance directors tell us these are the capabilities they value most in their analysts. Every technique we cover comes from real corporate experience.
This isn't theory-heavy coursework. Each module focuses on practical application using real Australian company data and industry examples you'll encounter in your career.
Start with properly structured income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements. Learn the formatting standards that make models readable and audit-friendly. Practice with ASX companies from different sectors.
Build DCF models that handle complex situations like working capital seasonality, capital expenditure cycles, and multiple business segments. Cover comparable company analysis using Australian market data.
Apply your skills to sector-specific challenges. Mining companies need different approaches than retail businesses. Learn the key drivers and metrics that matter in each industry.
Transform your models into compelling presentations. Practice explaining complex analysis to non-finance executives and handling tough questions about your assumptions and methodology.

The difference between academic finance and corporate reality is huge. Universities teach you the formulas, but they don't prepare you for the messy data, tight deadlines, and changing requirements you face in business.
I spent fifteen years building models for M&A transactions, IPO valuations, and strategic planning. The techniques that actually work are often different from what textbooks suggest. That's why our curriculum focuses on practical skills that handle real-world complexity.
When you're building a model for a board presentation, it needs to be bulletproof. Every assumption must be defensible. Every calculation must be transparent. These standards can't be compromised, and that's exactly what we teach.
