The one-stop program for breaking into Strategic Finance and becoming a top performer! You'll learn everything from the foundations of financial analysis and modeling to raising money and preparing for board meetings. Master key data and operational modeling techniques to build frameworks for driving decisions with your business partners.
Welcome to the Strategic Finance Careers course, a meticulously designed program to help you master the essentials of Strategic Finance, get you desk-ready to hit the ground running, and ensure you nail your interviews! The course begins with foundational concepts, such as financial analysis, key metrics, and crucial financial principles, which will act as the bedrock for your operational modeling.
The heart of this course lies in operational and financial modeling. You'll start by understanding the three key financial statements and building a general three-statement model. Once you can connect these statements to create a coherent financial narrative, you’ll dive into growth and revenue modeling, cost modeling, and operational modeling, allowing you to truly learn the operations of a business. You'll also learn the key KPIs that a StratFin team uses daily, such as LTV, CAC, and industry-specific unit economics.
A crucial part of strategic finance is developing operational models that drive decisions across the company. Your models will address questions like, “How much should we spend on marketing?” and “Should we raise another round?”. Collaborating effectively with teams like marketing and product will make you a more well-rounded professional, providing vital financial insights that empower informed business decisions. The course emphasizes practical application with examples, interview tips, and assessments to solidify your understanding, ensuring you are well-equipped to thrive in high-stakes financial roles.
A key area where many candidates lack expertise is the operational understanding of a business, especially those coming from advisory roles like banking and consulting. Strategic Finance Careers will prep you for any operational questions you may encounter and put you in the right mindset to think like an operator. Our certification has already helped countless candidates secure interviews and job offers at some of the top companies!
