About the course

Financial modelling skills are essential for forecasting a business's financial performance and comparing it to industry competitors. In the Financial Modelling and Analysis online short course from the University of Cape Town (UCT), you'll learn the foundational concepts required for Excel-based modelling and forecasting. The course will teach you how to create a mathematical model in Microsoft Excel that reflects the historical, current, or projected value or financial performance of an asset, stock, or investment. With guidance from expert faculty, you'll learn how to make strategic business decisions with financial modelling and create a discounted cash flow analysis using financial forecasts.
