What You'll Actually Learn

We spent years figuring out what works in financial education. Turns out, people need hands-on practice more than theory. That's why our curriculum focuses on scenarios you'll recognize from real businesses.

You'll work through budgets that mirror actual Australian companies—small retailers, service providers, even startups trying to figure out their cash flow. By month five, most students can spot budget problems faster than they thought possible.

  • Weekly practical assignments based on real business cases
  • Live feedback sessions with instructors who've done this work
  • Access to forecasting tools professionals actually use
  • Small cohorts that let you get proper attention

Eight Months, Four Core Modules

Each module builds on the previous one. We start with fundamentals and gradually add complexity—kind of like learning to cook by actually cooking, not just reading recipes.

Module One

Budget Fundamentals

Understanding where money comes from and where it goes seems obvious until you try mapping it. We'll walk through income streams, expense categories, and how to organize financial data that makes sense.

8 weeks • Starts September 2025
Module Two

Forecasting Methods

Predicting future finances feels like guessing at first. But there are patterns in business cycles. This module teaches you to recognize them and build projections that hold up when things change.

8 weeks • November 2025
Module Three

Scenario Planning

What happens when suppliers raise prices? What if revenue drops 15%? We'll model different scenarios so you can plan for uncertainty instead of panicking when it arrives.

8 weeks • January 2026
Module Four

Practical Application

The final module is essentially a capstone project. You'll create a comprehensive financial plan for a fictional company, presenting it like you would to actual stakeholders. Previous students say this part clicks everything together.

Who Teaches This Program

Our instructors spent years working in financial planning before teaching. They've seen budgets fall apart and forecasts prove wildly optimistic. That experience shapes how they approach education—less textbook theory, more "here's what actually happens."
