Why Choose This Course

There are countless “Excel courses” online. The vast majority of these courses are not specific to investment banking. They’re geared towards corporate users in general. If you take these courses, you will spend time learning a whole bunch of things in Excel that might be useful for travel agents at Expedia or HR people but irrelevant for investment banking. Also, a lot of the work that you’ll learn to produce in these courses won’t meet investment banking’s high standards. Reason #1: By contrast, this course focuses SPECIFICALLY on investment banking. The entire curriculum centers around teaching you how to use Excel to do the tasks that you have to do in investment banking, based on the industry’s high standards. This is especially useful for incoming Investment Banking Summer Analysts and Summer Associates because this will teach you how to do a lot of things that the deal team will ask you to do during the internship. The instructor was a former investment banker at Goldman Sachs and you will learn how to produce work like how it’s done at Wall Street’s top group. Imagine being able to produce high standard work right from the get go during your internship! That will do wonders for your chances of a return offer. Reason #2: The course is very hands-on. It comes with downloadable exercise spreadsheets. For everything we teach you, we ask you to do it in the spreadsheet alongside us. You’re not just reading or watching. You’re operating in Excel, letting the muscle memory accumulate. Reason #3: The course is very time efficient. Just like the financial modeling course we sell, we put consideration of your time front and center when designing the curriculum. We respect your time. Some other finance Excel courses might want you to spend tens of hours and weeks of your time learning Excel. We’ve designed the program so that you can learn how to perform the tasks in just 3 days.
