Financial Analysis Training – 2026 Program Schedule

We've spent years working with financial teams across Australia. The courses launching in 2026 reflect what actually matters when you're analyzing industry data, spotting trends, and making decisions that hold up under scrutiny.

Three Programs Built Around Real Work

Each course tackles a specific part of financial analysis. No fluff about overnight transformations. Just structured learning that prepares you for what you'll actually encounter when working with industry financial data.

Students reviewing financial statements and industry reports

Industry Financial Statement Analysis

12 weeks Starts March 2026

Learn to dissect balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow reports from various industries. You'll work through actual company filings and practice identifying red flags before they become problems.

Analyst examining market trends and comparative data

Comparative Industry Analysis

10 weeks Starts June 2026

This one's about context. How does one company stack up against competitors? What do sector-wide patterns tell us? We'll cover ratio analysis, benchmarking methods, and competitive positioning frameworks.

All three cohorts complete their capstone projects. Past participants have used these projects in job interviews and portfolio presentations. We host a virtual showcase where everyone shares their work.

Who You'll Learn From

Our instructors work in financial analysis during the day and teach in the evenings. That means course content stays current with what's actually happening in Australian markets. Here's what a few of them had to say about the 2026 program updates.

I've added three new case studies from the energy transition space because that's where students ask the most questions lately. The fundamentals don't change, but the context keeps evolving. It's good to work through examples that feel relevant to what they'll see in their careers.

Freya Eklund – Financial Statement Analysis Lead

The comparative analysis course now includes more international benchmarking exercises. Australian companies operate globally, and students need to understand how to compare performance across different regulatory environments. We're using real filings from companies operating in multiple jurisdictions.

Dimitri Vasa – Industry Comparison Specialist

Forecasting is where theory meets reality in uncomfortable ways. I've restructured the course to spend more time on sensitivity analysis and less on perfect-world scenarios. Students learn quickly that every forecast needs to account for what could go wrong, not just what we hope will happen.

Linnea Thorvaldsen – Financial Modeling Instructor

Registration Opens January 15, 2026
