Financial models are used extensively in finance and accounting roles, because they have become the most important decision-making tool in many industries: investment banking, private equity, corporate development, equity research, asset management and credit.
Financial modeling is a discipline that encompasses both knowledge and skills. FMI Foundations is the starting point for the theory and the concepts, designed as a pathway to the practical modeling skills the workplace asks for.
Learn how finance, accounting and Excel come together in real-world financial models.
Develop the knowledge that is expected in early-career finance roles.
Earn a digital LinkedIn badge to show your achievement to recruiters and employers.
Included with the program
The conference ran for 24 continuous hours across five themes. Every session, and the presentation materials that went with them, come with the program rather than being bought separately.
All thirty talks across Excel, technical modeling, AI, industry insight and career. Nothing held back for a higher tier.
Sessions are grouped the way the conference ran, so you can follow one theme end to end.
What the program covers
Learning resources cover how to structure a financial model, the key accounting concepts, and what goes into the schedules and the financial statements.
