10 tips to build a world-class model - Financial Modeling Best Practices 

We invite you to join us for a free live webinar hosted by The Marquee Group, with Ian Schnoor, CFA, the Executive Director of Financial Modeling Institute.

Financial Modeling is a discipline. A good model needs to tell a story and create confidence for the users and decision makers. Unfortunately, many financial models are a mess. Financial modelers are often self-taught and left to figure things out on their own, often wondering if “there’s a better way”.

In this live webinar, Ian Schnoor will review a better way. During the session, he will present and discuss some critical tools and skills required to build a best-in-class financial model that inspires confidence and leads to optimal decision making.

Specific topics will include: 

• The Discipline of Financial Modeling
• Top 10 Modeling Best Practices
• Key Modeling Tips
• Great Modeling Technical Skills
