## Overview

This financial analyst bootcamp provides you with a comprehensive set of skills spanning Excel, corporate finance, financial accounting, and valuation, all built around practical, real-world application. You'll work your way from essential Excel fundamentals through advanced modeling techniques, and finish by creating a comprehensive valuation model for a real public company, giving you exactly the kind of experience that top financial firms are looking for.

No prior knowledge of finance or accounting is required, as both are covered thoroughly throughout the program. You'll receive a short pre-learning guide a week before the course starts to help you hit the ground running, and by the time you're finished, you'll have hands-on experience with three-statement financial models, DCF analysis, and the kind of valuation work that drives real investment decisions.
