How the Certification Works
What Our Students Say
This course was very useful for me. Thank you!
This course provides a deeper grounding than Part I in comparable company and transaction aspects (if you haven't bought the Full Immersion version and thus don't have a Capital IQ trial, prepare for some manual work!) using real-world companies and their financials. Also present is a deeper dive into modelling a merger between two companies (which would fill a standalone course by itself. It is more in-depth all-around than Part I, but just as useful.
EXCELLENT COURSE THAT IS NEEDED TO BE TAUGHT IN MY MBA that I graduated about a Year back
Very well structured
