Financial Analysis Training That Actually Prepares You
We teach you to read balance sheets the way experienced analysts do. Not through theories alone, but by working through real company financials with people who've spent years doing this work.
Discuss Your Learning GoalsLearn From People Who Do This Daily
Our instructors aren't just teachers. They're working analysts who remember what it's like to stare at a financial statement and feel completely lost. That perspective shapes how we teach.
Tobias Kjelland
Lead Financial Instructor
Spent twelve years analysing retail and manufacturing companies for institutional investors. Now he breaks down complex financial structures into digestible pieces. Students appreciate his habit of explaining why something matters before diving into how it works.
Dejan Vukovic
Modelling & Valuation Specialist
Built financial models for mid-size companies throughout his career. His teaching focuses on practical Excel techniques and understanding what assumptions actually drive value. Dejan's known for pointing out when complexity doesn't add clarity.
Siobhan Rafferty
Industry Analysis Coach
Previously worked in equity research covering Australian mining and energy sectors. She teaches students how to understand competitive dynamics and recognise when industry trends matter more than individual company metrics. Straight-talking and patient.
What You'll Actually Learn
Six months of evening sessions starting October 2025. Each module builds on what came before, but we spend time reviewing because financial analysis involves connecting many moving parts.
Financial Statement Analysis
You'll learn to read income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements. More importantly, you'll understand how they connect and what story they tell together. We use real Australian company reports, not sanitised textbook examples.
8 weeksRatio Analysis & Company Health
Calculating ratios is straightforward. Knowing which ones matter for different industries and business models takes practice. We spend time on interpretation, not just computation.
6 weeksBuilding Financial Models
Start with simple three-statement models and build complexity gradually. You'll learn to structure models that others can follow and adjust. Excel proficiency develops through repeated practice with instructor feedback.
7 weeksValuation Fundamentals
DCF analysis, comparable company analysis, and precedent transactions. We cover the mechanics but focus heavily on assumption-setting and scenario analysis. The goal is developing judgment, not just technical skill.
