What you’ll get out of this course?
The Create a Strategic 5-year Financial Model in Excel course will guide you through the practical process of creating a 5-year financial model in Excel, step by step. We will define a clear structure and build a robust dynamic model, which you can reuse repeatedly. I will help you understand the flow of information between different parts of the model and how to optimize these relationships. You will learn how to forecast, define assumptions and perform sensitivity analysis. We will define a consistent formatting framework for our model to make it easier to read and understand, even after time has passed.
I will show you some tips and tricks to tremendously improve the value of your model by adding versatility, dynamic scenarios, and sensitivity analysis. We will take it to the end and prepare summary sheets to share with investors and other stakeholders.

What should you know to take the course?
This course is aimed at an intermediate level of students. We will go over the main shortcuts and formulas we use in the model, and you will have to become familiar with those to follow along. I expect you to have a solid fundamental knowledge of Excel, be able to use formulas, link to cells in other sheets, and know how the standard formatting tools and the ribbon work. This course will be hard to take if you are entirely new to Excel.
To fully understand the model, you will need some basic accounting knowledge. I explain everything whenever we go into specifics. Still, I expect you to be familiar with an Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Statement and have a general idea of how these are linked together. I would also expect you to understand words like Depreciation and Amortization, Interest, Cash Flows, and other similar terms.
It would be possible to follow along and learn much from the course, even without basic accounting knowledge. Still, I would suggest you familiarize yourself with that and then take the Create a Strategic 5-year Financial Model in Excel course.
I hope you are ready to up your game, learn how to build investor-ready financial models in Excel, and propel your career!
