  • Ali Hoffman Mar 14, 2025

    Grace was not only welcoming to the class but very knowledgeable and helpful. I really appreciated being in person and getting to work one-on-one with Grace. I drove to NYC from Connecticut to be in person at the class session. The setup was lovely and comfortable, and programs (Word and Google Chrome) were readily available for use.

  • Ali H. Jan 23, 2025

    I appreciate having the handbook available for download along with an answer key. The instructor even set everything up for me, which was out of this world appreciated.

  • Spencer Reely Jan 15, 2025

    Highly recommend this course for anyone looking to refine, refresh, or extend their financial modeling skills. This course focuses on practical & tactical concepts that I could immediately apply to my daily workflow. Great value & a worthwhile time investment. If you can make it onsite for the in-person sessions, even better!

  • Jonada Burson Oct 2, 2024

    I really appreciate the way information is presented in this course. It is broken down into small enough pieces so you can grasp it. I've been trying ChatGPT / AI on my own for a couple of months, but I was missing key pieces to understand completely how to use it and what all AI can do.

  • Jonada B. Sep 22, 2024

    This is a class that most folks in the workforce need to take. The instructor is very informative and full of advice and suggestions to use in your practice, but not overwhelming.

  • Katherine E. Mar 27, 2024

    The material was well presented. It was easy to follow but not oversimplified. I would be interested in taking another course with this school and instructor.

  • Elise Kowalick Mar 4, 2024

    A thorough, clear, and concise way to review the fundamentals of Excel. Highly recommend!

  • Nietzsche Moura Mascarenhas Feb 1, 2024

  • Sang I. Oct 12, 2023

    Grace is a great instructor and very engaging. She did a great job keeping the class moving forward. Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend this class.

  • Lalit Madan Oct 12, 2023

    It was a excellent experience! Thank you to the instructor!

  • Alexandria Dec 6, 2018

    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.

  • Noam Lipschutz Dec 4, 2018

    I can honestly say I learned more useful modeling and Excel skills from the Financial Modeling Bootcamp than I have through one and a half years of business school. The course effectively conveys key finance, corporate finance, and financial accounting concepts while also offering students the opportunity to build real financial models with real-time data. The 7:1 student to teacher ratio along with the experience and modeling expertise of Mourad offers a unique opportunity for a personalized learning experience. Whether you are a student looking to pursue a career in finance or a current professional simply looking to brush up on your Excel skills, I would highly recommend this course.

  • Patrick M. Jul 3, 2018

    Overall great experience in taking the Intermediate Excel Class today! Content was well organized and had appropriate progression from easy to more complex examples. Garfield, our instructor, was very knowledgabe, patient, and thorough. He also had a great sense of humor and kept the class interesting, time really flew by! I will be back to take the Advanced class and also the VBA.

  • Robert F. Jun 26, 2018

    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.

  • Alexandria A. May 31, 2018

    Had a one on one training with Garfield - he was patient, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to expand their Excel capabilities in business.

  • Dana D. Feb 2, 2018

    Just came out of my Excel for Business training. Garfield, the instructor, is really nice And very helpful. They are very professional and they provide all the necessary tools for the students to acquire all the info they need, and, in case you want to refresh your memory you can always retake the course for free within 6 months. Cool, huh? :-)

  • Tessa P. Dec 16, 2017

    I had a great experience in my level 2 Excel for business course. The instructor, Garfield, was very knowledgeable and patient with questions. He taught all the sections effectively and I really feel like I learned a lot from that one day session. It is a really nice facility with modern computers (Macs too). The fact that they give you the chance to re-take a class free of charge within a year after the first one is amazing. I highly recommend their courses and will definitely be taking another class, or two!
