Mediocre

Not sure about their other courses, but the Forensic Accounting course was mediocre. Not worth the price. Should be on Udemy for $10.

Purposeful modeling

Before I looked through the Financial Edge Training website, I was averse to undertaking any modeling course. However, the approach by Financial Edge Training invited me to rethink formatting my models and communicating analysis and outputs to intended audiences in a more succinct manner.

Really expensive for what it was

Really expensive for what it was - thought I might be able to come back to it at a later date since I spent £400 on the materials but that apparently isn’t an option

Highly recommend any analyst joining the realm of Corporate Finance to immerse themselves in this challenging yet fulfilling course.
The instructor explanations are concise and you will generally get feedback in a short time if something isnt particularly clear to you.
I personally often refer back to some of the material in my day-to-day for best practice.
well done Team FE

Dear Derek,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review - we are always looking for ways to improve so we really appreciate your feedback.

We choose to split the courses up into shorter videos as many of our students find them easier to digest this way. We are sorry to hear that this has affected your learning negatively and we will consider this when producing new content.

Would you be able to provide further information via email? If you could reach out to info@fe.training, we'd love to hear more about your experience and how we can further improve our content.

Great work FE

I was hesitant to fork out the cash to purchase the course at first, but I’m really glad I did in the end. The modules are well structured and the material is presented in a way that is intuitive and engaging. The hands-on excel workouts are invaluable. Highly recommend to those looking for a way to break into finance.

A right of passage

In my humble opinion, if you're thinking about a career in investment banking and wish to take a step closer to working in said industry, Financial Edge's IB micro-degree would be a splendid place to start.
It'll develop various new skills and give you a teaser of what you'll be doing as an IB analyst.
If you find yourself despising modelling and valuing... In the long term, it would be better to make that discovery early on rather than down the line when you've invested MUCH more time, effort, and money.
For newcomers, the course is vast but well structured. Not to mention, Gerard is easy to follow :)
Once again... If you want to get into investment banking... This is a good place to start.

It’s great to take this course if you’re having no experience or foundation in finance like me, as long as with your passion, I believe this would bring you to another level closer to as professionals. I’m taking another course in financial accounting too, I realized this course really set me a great starting point to understand how accounting and modeling work. If you’re desparate to become an investment banker one day in future, I would say don’t hesitate, just do it!
