Financial Analysis Training That Actually Makes Sense
We're running cohorts starting September 2025. Learn to analyze business metrics, spot financial patterns, and build dashboards that tell real stories. No fluff, no shortcuts—just practical skills you'll use.
Register Interest for Fall 2025Three Learning Tracks
Choose what fits your schedule and goals. Each track covers different aspects of business finance analysis. You can switch between tracks if your priorities change—we've seen it happen.
Foundations Track
Start here if numbers intimidate you. We cover financial statements, basic ratios, and how to read quarterly reports without getting lost. By week eight, you'll understand what CFOs actually mean when they talk about EBITDA.
Applied Analytics Track
For people who already understand basics but need real application practice. We work with actual company data from South Korean markets. You'll build models, create forecasts, and present findings like you would to a board.
Strategic Finance Track
Deep dive into valuation, capital structure decisions, and risk assessment. This one's intense—we had a participant last year who said it felt like an MBA condensed into three months. They meant it as a compliment, I think.
Learn from People Who've Done This Work
Our instructors have spent years analyzing business performance for companies across Asia. Tiberius Folke spent a decade in corporate finance before switching to education—he still consults on the side, which keeps the material current. Rhoswen Calloway worked in investment analysis and brings case studies from actual deals she evaluated.
What you won't get: theoretical lectures with perfect examples. What you will get: messy real-world scenarios where the data doesn't cooperate and you have to figure out what matters anyway.
How Sessions Actually Work
We meet twice weekly via video calls. First session is concept introduction with examples. Second session is hands-on—you work through problems while instructors circulate virtually to answer questions. It's more interactive than you'd expect from online education.
Between sessions, you'll have assignments. Not busywork—actual analysis tasks like "review this company's cash flow statement and identify three concerns you'd raise in a meeting." You submit your work, get detailed feedback within 48 hours, and discuss common mistakes in the next group session.
We also run optional peer review groups. Some participants find these more valuable than the formal sessions because you see how others approach the same problems differently.
What a Typical Program Journey Looks Like
This is based on the Applied Analytics Track, but the other tracks follow similar patterns with different content depth. Most people find weeks 4-6 the hardest—that's when theory meets reality and nothing works like the textbook said it would.
Getting Your Bearings
Introduction to financial statements and basic analysis frameworks. You'll learn to read balance sheets and income statements without your eyes glazing over. We start with familiar companies so the numbers mean something.
Reality Check Phase
Here's where it gets challenging. You'll work with incomplete data, conflicting information, and ambiguous situations. One assignment involves analyzing a company where the CEO's statements don't match the financial trends. Welcome to real business analysis.
Building Your Toolkit
Advanced ratio analysis, trend identification, and comparative company evaluation. You'll create dashboards that executives could actually use. We emphasize clear communication—impressive analysis means nothing if you can't explain what you found.
Capstone Project
Comprehensive analysis of a company you choose. Research, analyze, build models, create presentations, and defend your conclusions to the group. Past projects have covered everything from manufacturing firms to e-commerce platforms. You own this one.
