Modelling Training

Developing Modelling Excellence

We provide a range of training courses designed to improve best-practice financial modelling skills and convey key concepts within infrastructure finance. Our courses are typically attended by those responsible for modelling and analysis at banks, developers, corporates, investment funds and public sector entities. 

We conduct regular training courses online and in-person from our offices in London, as well as running courses in client offices globally. In between teaching courses our trainers are busy developing and reviewing financial models for projects across the world; this real-world experience allows us to provide deep practical insights to course attendees rather than just theory.

Our in-house classroom style courses can be tailored to your individual needs, with core content from our standard course curriculums supplemented with specific requests, or with training models adjusted to reflect the most relevant industry sector. 

“Our courses are set in a small workshop environment and are highly interactive. You will learn to write formulas from scratch and build cash flow models from the bottom up.”

Our delivery method makes the course ideal for companies looking to train groups of 5+ analysts and associates in best practice financial modelling. The full course is broken into two 2-day courses.
