You are encouraged not to miss live sessions, as a great part of the experience is both the live-reveals and the participant interaction.

In other words, you get to:

• learn in real-time
• apply in real-time, and
• reflect in real time

Yes, sessions are recorded and you can go through them on your own, but learning tends to be reduced.

We meet for 2 half-days for 4 hours each session. It is intentionally spaced out over a number of days so you can work your schedule around it.

That's 8 hours all in: content, discussion, reflection, cases, and Q&A.

There may be occasional pre-work and post-session work but it is minimal.

It is not customary for me to offer refunds. Across hundreds of training, seminars, workshops, and conferences -- in person and virtual -- to thousands of people, I have never been asked once for a refund.

For one in-person training program, there was a blizzard and my flight was canceled. I offered a rescheduling option for a future date.

I offer more than a dozen training programs and immersive development experiences across a wide range of finance and accounting topics.

This program is intentionally designed for finance professionals who want to advance their skills and understanding specifically in data extraction, formatting, positioning, and importing into Excel and Power BI.

We meet live on Zoom 2x per week.

Each session consists of half the modules of the course. Each module ties into prior and future modules, so it is vital to try to avoid missing classes.

The structure of the session begins with an intro, a tie-in to a real example, exercises, discussion, and reflections.

Prerequisites for the course include the following:

• You should have a basic-to-intermediate understanding of Microsoft Excel
• You should have a current version (2016 or later) of Microsoft Excel, ideally (though not necessary) on a PC.
• You should have at least an basic understanding of accounting and finance concepts.

No, but I will offer you my promises.

Everyone who attends this course will have different backgrounds, experience, and aspirations which means they have different business models or jobs.

My promise is to share with you my techniques, tools, and processes that will accelerate your finance career and make you far more confident in what you do.
