Course Overview:

This financial modeling course covers Financial Modeling Fundamentals Plus Advanced Excel for Financial Modeling.

Our financial modelling course provides a sound understanding of both the principles of financial modelling and the practical application of these to real-world situations by using Excel to build financial models.

The course builds upon the financial modelling principles and practices learned to apply these to company or project valuations. In this, participants improve their mastery of valuation principles and concepts, and learn how to apply these in real-life situations.

Finally, participants will receive training in how to both detect and prevent errors from occurring.

Excel is the tool of choice for most financial modelers so before we start building financial models, it’s critical that we have a good understanding of the key functions and tools in Excel that can help us build models that are robust, easy-to-use, and flexible.

Here are just some of the areas we cover in our in-depth, hands-on workshop:

  • Working with large data sets
  • Summarizing and aggregating data
  • Extracting data that matches criteria using flexible formulas
  • Error handling
  • Ways of improving structure
  • Techniques for keeping formulas constant yet flexible
  • Combining and splitting cells according to the content they contain
  • Advanced techniques for creating automatically expanding charts and ranges
  • Introduction to macros & when to use these

We then apply and practice these functions during the remainder of the course.

Course Topics:
