Mumbai, October 21 2008
Hi Everyone, We are launching a 6 module (24 man hours) program titled "Company Valuation and Advanced Financial Modeling using Excel and VBA." Classes will meet on Saturday's and/ or Sunday's at Mumbai/ New Delhi/ Bangalore. The program is designed to enable the participants to develop advanced modeling skills using Excel and VBA. This program will act as an excellent complement to your existing qualifications such as an MBA or progress towards the CFA designation since it enables you to gain the practical skills that employers are looking for but which are missing from mainstream educational programs such as the MBA degree. The curriculum below outlines in more detail the contents of the course but in summary it is a practitioner's perspective on advanced financial modeling. Thanks!
Methodology:
The course will take a hands-on approach to modeling. Participants will need to bring their laptop's so they can practice as they learn and continue to build on the classroom learning at home. Batch size will be limited to about 10 students so as to maximize interaction and facilitate learning.
