Learn Financial Modelling - Step by Step

What a financial model is for

A financial model turns assumptions about revenue, costs and capital into a forecast a business can act on. This playlist teaches that process one step at a time, which suits people who know some finance but have never built a model from a blank spreadsheet.

Pace and length

At 35 videos and roughly 24 hours 30 minutes of footage, it is a long commitment. Watch in order, because each step relies on the structure built in the previous one. The channel behind it, The Valuation School, keeps the series focused on the modelling workflow itself.

• Build along in a spreadsheet instead of only watching, so the formulas become yours.
• Keep a separate file for each episode so you can compare your model with the lesson at every stage.

Anyone looking for a quick shortcut will find the time investment heavy, but for a step-by-step foundation it is a substantial option.
