In-house Financial Modelling Courses
We have been running in-house financial modelling courses for clients since 1999. Many of our courses are repeat business or part of larger training programmes, and for some, F1F9 training is an integral part of onboarding new staff.
These companies appreciate the customisation, flexibility and highly-skilled instructors that we provide, as well as the ongoing support from our expert modellers.
Why use us to provide training for your team?
Our instructors have all completed a rigorous training programme within F1F9, and they have a broad range of real-world experience that they can bring to the classroom – find out more about their background and expertise below. Financial modelling is our core business, and we understand what skills modellers need.
An in-house course is the best way to build your team’s skills in an intensive, distraction-free and supportive environment.
In-house training is available at your offices or via Live Online Tuition – see below for the benefits of each method.
We offer a range of tried-and-tested courses based on case studies that can be applied to all kinds of modelling challenges. The course agenda and the classroom discussions can be tailored and adapted to suit the needs and abilities of your group.
If you have specialised requirements we are happy to create bespoke case studies and assessments, as well as bespoke online tutorials.
Our post-course follow up adds tremendous value. Participants receive access to the online version of their classroom course, and can raise questions for our modelling team and participate in discussions with their group or our wider modelling community via online forums, instant chat or email.

We have been working with Mubadala to standardise their approach to financial modelling (“The Mubadala Way”) since 2012. We have taught over 200 analysts from a wide variety of sectors. Our training programme uses a variety of learning approaches: self-study backed up with support from our team of modellers, informal and formal assessments, instructor-led classroom sessions and webinars. At the final stage of the programme, participants are required to present to senior members of the organisation.

Our training programme uses a variety of learning approaches: self-study backed up with support from our team of modellers, informal and formal assessments, instructor-led classroom sessions and webinars. At the final stage of the programme, participants are required to present to senior members of the organisation.
Our initial brief was to run a programme for Mubadala’s core modellers – those professionals who work with financial models of considerable complexity on a daily basis. Based on a real-world case study, the training took participants through all the requirements for financial modelling from basic skills and drills in Excel to the design and construction of a highly complex set of financing requirements.
Since running the early programmes, we have amended the course material to give it a more general appeal (suitable for analysts for whom modelling is not core but nonetheless important). This included the development of further case studies relevant to the work being undertaken (including a hotel and a satellite). We continue to work with Mubadala’s learning and development team in improving the design of the programme.
Mubadala’s commitment to a single financial modelling standard has resulted in its analysts understanding the importance of a common approach and honing their technical skills. The course has been popular and in high demand – with participants enjoying the study material and the opportunity to present their work to senior colleagues.
