Most financial modeling courses start too abstract. This workshop starts with a blank Excel file and builds a three-statement model step by step.
What the workshop covers
Participants work through income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement integration. Every formula is explained in context, not just demonstrated. By the end of the day, you will have a working model you built yourself, not a template someone else made.
Who this is for
Finance students, junior analysts, and career changers who have used Excel before but have never built a linked financial model. No prior modeling experience required, but basic spreadsheet comfort is assumed.
Format and tools
The session runs for seven hours with two breaks. All participants receive an exercise file before the event. A laptop with Excel 2016 or later is required. Google Sheets is not supported for this workshop due to formula compatibility issues.
Instructor Tobiasz Wierzbicki has built models for M&A transactions and infrastructure financing over twelve years. He teaches by fixing mistakes in real time, which tends to stick better than watching polished demos.
