Linh Hoang

Financial Analyst

18 Months Post-Completion

From Operations to Analysis

Linh was working in operations management when she joined. She wanted to understand the numbers side better because she kept seeing decisions made without clear financial reasoning.

What's interesting is how she approached it—didn't quit her job, just consistently put in evening hours over those eight months. Now she's moved into a hybrid role where she bridges operations and finance teams.

Moved from operations coordinator to financial analyst role within her company

Developed internal reporting system that the finance department now uses regularly

Recently started mentoring new analysts on practical application methods

Tuan Pham

Small Business Owner

22 Months Post-Completion

Making Sense of His Own Numbers

Tuan runs a manufacturing business with about thirty employees. He'd been relying entirely on his accountant to tell him whether things were going well or not—which felt backward to him.

He joined specifically to learn how to read his own financial statements properly. Not to replace his accountant, just to understand what he was looking at. The program gave him frameworks for identifying which costs were actually problematic versus just large.

Restructured pricing model based on actual margin analysis rather than competitor pricing

Identified three product lines that were consistently unprofitable and phased them out

Now conducts quarterly reviews with his team using methods learned in the program

Mai Nguyen

Corporate Finance Manager

14 Months Post-Completion

Filling The Practical Gaps

Mai had an accounting degree but felt like her education was too theoretical. She could do the calculations but struggled with interpretation—especially when presenting to non-finance managers.

The program helped her develop that translation skill. How to explain margin pressure without drowning people in numbers. How to present recommendations that actually get implemented rather than filed away.

Promoted to senior analyst position with expanded strategic responsibilities

Developed executive dashboard that simplified monthly performance reviews

Now leads cross-functional meetings where finance insights drive operational decisions

What The Program Covers

We structured this around five core areas. Each one builds on the previous, but they're also useful independently depending on what you need.

Financial Statement Analysis

You'll learn to read balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow reports—not just mechanically, but understanding what they're actually telling you about business health.

Ratio analysis and what different metrics reveal
Spotting warning signs before they become crises
Comparing performance across time periods

Cost Structure Evaluation

Understanding where money goes and why. We focus on distinguishing between different cost types and how they behave under various business conditions.

Fixed versus variable cost identification
Break-even analysis for decision-making
Cost allocation methods and their implications

Margin Analysis Techniques

This gets into profitability at the product, service, or business unit level. How to figure out what's actually making money versus what just looks busy.

Contribution margin calculations
Product-level profitability assessment
Pricing strategy implications

Forecasting Methods

Building realistic projections based on historical data and business assumptions. We keep this practical—techniques you can actually apply without complex modeling software.

Revenue projection approaches
Expense forecasting techniques
Scenario planning and sensitivity analysis

Communication Frameworks

Maybe the most underrated part. How to present financial information to people who aren't finance specialists—making it clear without oversimplifying.

Executive summary development
Visual data presentation methods
Tailoring messages to different audiences

Financial analysis workshop session with participants reviewing data

Collaborative learning environment during financial modeling exercise
