Master Financial Valuation from the Ground Up

Our program walks you through real-world valuation methods that financial analysts actually use. You'll work with case studies from Thai and regional markets, building skills that matter when you're reviewing investments or advising clients.

What to Expect at Each Stage

1

Before You Enroll

You'll want to know if this fits your background. We recommend having basic accounting knowledge and comfort with spreadsheets. If you've worked with financial statements before, you're already ahead. Programs start in October 2025 and March 2026.

2

During the Program

Expect structured learning sessions twice weekly over eight months. You'll analyze company financials, build models, and get feedback on your work. Some weeks are heavier than others—especially when you're working on your capstone project.

3

After Completion

You'll have a portfolio of valuation work and connections with other analysts. Many participants find these relationships helpful when exploring career moves. We also maintain an alumni network that shares opportunities and insights.

Essential Knowledge for Financial Analysts

These are the practical points that come up repeatedly when analysts are doing real valuation work. Simple to state, but they make a difference in how accurately you assess investment opportunities.

Context Matters More Than Formulas

Industry dynamics affect which valuation approach makes sense. A manufacturing company and a tech startup need different methods. Understanding the business model helps you pick the right tools.

Check Your Assumptions Twice

Small changes in growth rates or discount factors can swing valuations significantly. Document why you chose each assumption—you'll need to explain your reasoning later.

Comparable Companies Are Never Perfect

When using peer analysis, you'll always make compromises. Size, geography, and business mix all differ. The key is acknowledging these gaps rather than pretending the comparison is exact.

Market Conditions Change the Picture

A valuation done during optimistic market conditions looks different from one during uncertainty. Being aware of broader economic trends helps you avoid overconfidence in your numbers.

Questions People Actually Ask

How much time should I plan to invest weekly?

Most participants spend 6-8 hours per week between sessions and independent work. Some weeks require more, particularly when you're building detailed models or preparing presentations. See full schedule details

Do I need specific software or tools?

Excel is essential—most valuation work happens in spreadsheets. We also use Bloomberg Terminal access for market data during sessions. If you're comfortable with financial modeling in Excel, you have what you need.

What happens if I fall behind on coursework?

Life gets busy. We build in flexibility with recorded sessions and extended deadlines for assignments. However, valuation concepts build on each other, so catching up requires extra effort. Reach out if you need support

Can I apply these methods to my current work immediately?

Many do. If you're already working in finance or investment analysis, you'll likely find opportunities to use what you're learning. The techniques transfer well to portfolio evaluation, M&A analysis, and corporate finance roles.

Real Analysis Work, Not Just Theory

We focus on the valuation methods that analysts actually use when assessing companies and investment opportunities. You'll work through case studies based on real regional businesses, building models that reflect genuine market conditions.

The program covers discounted cash flow analysis, comparable company methods, precedent transactions, and how to adjust for market volatility. But the real learning happens when you're applying these to messy, real-world situations.
