Building Financial Models That Actually Work
Most people think financial modeling is all about complex spreadsheets and intimidating formulas. We break it down differently. Our approach focuses on practical building blocks you can use right away.
The Three-Part Framework
We designed this system after watching hundreds of people struggle with traditional approaches. Instead of throwing everything at you at once, we split the journey into manageable phases.
Foundation Work
Start with the basics that matter. You'll spend your first few weeks understanding how financial statements connect. Not theory for theory's sake, but the actual mechanics of how businesses track money.
Model Construction
Here's where things get interesting. You'll build your first complete model from scratch. We use real company data so you can see what works and what breaks when assumptions change.
Scenario Testing
Models only become useful when you stress-test them. You'll learn to ask the right questions and build flexibility into your frameworks so they hold up under different conditions.
What Makes Our Method Different
Traditional programs dump information on you and hope something sticks. We spent two years refining our approach based on feedback from working professionals who actually use these skills daily.
- Work with actual company financials from Thai and regional businesses
- Build models that match what analysts use in real investment decisions
- Get feedback on your work from people who've built hundreds of these
- Learn the shortcuts that save hours without sacrificing accuracy
- Understand when to dig deeper and when good enough is actually good enough
Your Learning Path
Programs starting September 2025 follow this structure. Each phase builds naturally on what came before.
Financial Statement Basics
Before building anything, you need to read the raw materials. We'll walk through income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reports using actual examples from companies you've heard of.
Building Your First Model
This is where theory meets practice. You'll construct a three-statement model from a real company's historical data. Expect to make mistakes. That's the point.
Forecasting Methods
How do you project future performance without just making stuff up? We'll cover multiple approaches, from simple growth rates to more sophisticated driver-based models.
Valuation Frameworks
What's a company actually worth? You'll learn DCF analysis, comparable company methods, and when each approach makes sense. Numbers tell stories if you know how to listen.
Advanced Applications
The final stretch covers sensitivity analysis, scenario planning, and building models that can handle complexity without becoming impossible to maintain.
