Testimonials for Live Online Training

“Overall experience on Zoom was maybe even better than in IRL classroom because the instruction takes place right on your own screen, with less distraction. Great overall experience.”
“Given the fact that we had to do this entire class remotely due to Covid-19, I didn’t have very high expectations it would run so smoothly. However, I don’t think it could’ve gone any better. Not only do I feel very comfortable with the program now, but I’m actually excited to use it!”
“This was the first online class I’ve taken with ND and it was a great experience. Looking forward to the other classes I’ve signed up for!”

This was a great refresher course for some of the deeper financial concepts I have not used since undergrad. I think this course is phenomenal for recent college grads starting off their careers in finance or budget. It's a great intro for learning to navigate excel shortcuts. I am 5 years in my career now and have never had the investment banking background but still have been a financial analyst and been involved in raising capital so the concepts covered were a great refresher for me. Additionally the instructor did a great job with playing to the students in the course and our backgrounds and what subjects to go more in-depth with and vice versa.

Alexandria B.

This financial modeling bootcamp helped me round off my excel shortcut skills. All of the excel shortcuts I didn't already know; I learned in this course. This will help me work fast and smarter. I also appreciated the applicability of the financial analysis we conducted. We moved in a very timely fashion and this was a very productive course that will help me as I start off as an investment analyst.

John C.

The financial modeling boot-camp class was a great review for everything I have learned during my undergraduate studies and was also very relevant to my working experience. I also liked that the size of the classes were not too big; this allowed the participants to be actively engaged. As I work in fixed income and while this boot-camp focused on projecting stock price, the research and excel model/setup is very similar so there was very relevant crossover. All in all, I wish I had taken this class earlier this year. Great class.

Nico S.

I took the Financial Modeling Bootcamp. The instructors are very knowledgeable about what they teach and encourage questions throughout the workshop.

Kelvin L.

Great experience, I highly recommend for anyone looking to break into consulting/banking!

Thomas P.

Took the two day Financial Modeling Bootcamp. Extremely informative and useful. Smaller class size allows for one on one help and enables you to really understand the material you are working through. Additionally you build out a model on an actual company during the course, allowing you to perform the same kind of analysis you would use in a real office setting, as opposed to looking at generic accounting problems. Office itself is very nice, and the professors are extremely well informed. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to develop, sharpen, or reestablish their financial modeling skills.

Robert F.

Whether you want a quick refresher or crash course, Financial Modeling in Excel will benefit anyone in the M&A field looking to expand their skills.

Charles K., Element 78 Advisors

Super helpful and affordable. Will be helpful in my career in growth equity.

NYC's Top Finacial Modeling Course

What separates this financial modeling program from others?

At NYIM, we've created a comprehensive and affordable program that provides financial analysts with the essentials tools they need. You'll review the advanced Excel skills you need to efficiently build models and perform day-to-day tasks required at an investment bank or financial firm. Prior financial accounting and corporate finance are not required, so the course is open to non-finance professionals looking starting a career or switching over, or those currently in finance seeking a refresher. To ensure that your time is well-spent, a variety of pre-work materials and assignments are provided throughout the course, with additional practice projects afterward.

Our curriculum is 100% proprietary and hands-on. The materials were developed by seasoned professionals and are constantly updated to reflects new tools and tricks available for the new generation of analysts. Throughout the course, you will on real-world case studies and projects. While financial theory is discussed throughout, the central focus is on how that theory is applied to the job. At no point in the bootcamp will you sit through more than a few minutes of lecture without working on a project.

Finally, you will learn tricks and tools other programs don't emphasize, including shortcuts to quickly input financial data and build and format models quickly. Instead of memorizing formulas and processes, you will learn to think like an analyst by reading company presentations, earnings reports, news releases, and earnings transcripts.

Who should attend this course?

This course is perfect for incoming or current financial analysts seeking to learn or review finance, accounting, valuation, and Excel. This bootcamp will be particularly helpful for analysts working in investment banking, private equity, hedge funds, real estate, and venture capital, as well as professionals working in finance departments of non-financial companies. Additionally, the course covers many concepts covered in investment banking interviews.
