Imagine taking a course on how to tie your shoes. You are shown very detailed pictures on how to tie them and told every detail about how to do it, but you don't have an actual shoe to practice on. How well do you think that would work out? That's just like this course. They give you great information and fairly good explanations, but the valuation spreadsheet that they constantly reference and show you over and over... they don't give you a copy! How in the world am I supposed to understand these concepts without using the tool?!!

Unfortunately the tables shown were not provided. From my perspective, this is a severe shortcoming of this course, as students should be motivated to applied their learnings in the real world/for practice.

Great course to learn investment banking concepts and methods used to evaluate a company. The course itself touches upon evaluating established companies based on past performance, and analyzing start-ups based on projected future cash flows are explained in a succinct way. Topics such as financial spreads, comparable public company analysis, precedent transaction analysis, free cash flows and WACC are greatly explained.
