Learn From Industry Veterans
Our valuation program connects you directly with seasoned professionals who've spent decades perfecting their craft in investment banking, private equity, and corporate development.
How We Actually Teach
Forget textbook theories that don't work in the real world. Our approach starts with actual deals, real companies, and the messy situations you'll encounter when building models under pressure. We teach you to think like an analyst, not just follow formulas.
- Case studies built from actual M&A transactions our instructors have worked on
- Small cohorts of 8-12 students ensuring personalized attention and feedback
- Weekly office hours where you can discuss specific challenges with your models
- Access to the same databases and tools used by professional analysts
- Iterative learning where you rebuild the same models multiple times as complexity increases
