Testimonials
What our clients say about us:
"I enjoyed the course and got a lot of practical insights into investment banking and the modeling part. The sessions were very lively and interactive and i particularly liked the LBO module. The practical part of building a financial model from scratch was the biggest plus points." Vinayak Pai V, Bcom, FCA |
"Very useful course and content. I had not performed a full DCF from scratch since B School and this course improved my grasp and confidence a lot. Should help B School finance students who do not have a specialized class in valuation, and almost everyone can do with more practice in Excel. Working on the excel model, and tips on how to improve speed while preparing the model were some of the best parts of the class. I would recommend this course for others as it’s a good course for entry/mid level professionals who will need to build a valuation model, and for b-school final year finance students looking to get into IB." Arvind K., MBA Finance |
"The class was very useful and I think it is very much aimed at MBA (Finance) students. Some of the best parts of the class were the teaching methodology by Shoumitro and obviously the excel files which gave practical exposure as explained by Sridhar. I would like to have spent more time on the M&A and LBO models. I would recommend this course to others who have an interest in Investment banking." Nitin Mishra, MBA Finance |
"The class was very useful. We learned how to build a financial model, forecast numbers and determine valuation and merger benefits. The content and format both were properly structured. Providing the PPT and excel materials after every class was really helpful." Sreejit Andrews, MBA Finance |
"The class was really useful in terms of understanding valuation of companies, knowing the cash flows of a company, how mergers and acquisitions are done etc. If Austal offered courses on international finance or risk management I would take them. I have already recommended the course to some of my friends and juniors." Shashi Kiran, MBA Finance |
"It was an absolute pleasure learning from experienced professionals and that too from people who understand the curiosity of students like us. The instructors gave proper and due attention to everyone…being patient and listening to all of us was the best part of the class. I have already advised some of my juniors to attend the programme if the same is offered next year." Gyanesh Shroff, MBA Finance |
"The best part of the class was the student-faculty interaction. The faculty made sure we understood the topic well before moving onto the next topic. This was a class that covered both the theory and the practical." Rocky Agarwal, MBA Finance |
"Someone who is keen on Investment banking can learn a lot from such a program. So it’s an individual’s interest over investment banking which matters. And yes, for such an individual this is the right program. I feel both the instructors were equally good. Both instructors had thorough knowledge about the topic. Sridhar’s contribution through excel sheets and Shoumitro’s tireless efforts to explain concepts and to clear our doubts are extremely commendable. I would like to take up other courses offered by AustalEducation especially in the areas of security analysis and portfolio management. I would definitely recommend this program to others. The style of teaching and the course structure is more focused on students." John George, MBA Finance |
