Financial modeling is the process of constructing structured, quantitative representations of financial performance to support forecasting, valuation, and decision making. These models are used to assess outcomes, test assumptions, and analyze institutional or project level financial scenarios using structured techniques. This training program focuses on the principles and techniques of financial modeling, providing participants with the tools and knowledge to build robust and accurate financial models. It empowers them to create models that support decision making, valuation, and financial analysis.
