Progressive Learning Journey
Each phase builds comprehensive understanding while providing practical skills you can apply immediately. The series runs from August through December 2025, with flexible attendance options for working professionals.
Foundation Phase
We start with core concepts that form the backbone of sound financial decision-making. This isn't about memorising formulas—it's about understanding the logic behind capital allocation decisions and how they impact business strategy.
What You'll Develop
- Time value of money calculations in practical contexts
- NPV and IRR analysis with real project scenarios
- Risk assessment frameworks for investment decisions
- Cash flow forecasting and sensitivity analysis
Strategic Analysis Phase
Moving beyond basic calculations, we explore how capital budgeting fits into broader strategic planning. You'll work with multi-year projects and learn to balance competing priorities within budget constraints.
Skills You'll Build
- Portfolio approach to capital project selection
- Strategic fit evaluation and scoring methodologies
- Resource allocation under capital constraints
- Integration with business planning cycles
Advanced Applications Phase
Here's where theory meets complex reality. We tackle challenging scenarios involving uncertainty, changing market conditions, and the kind of decisions that keep executives awake at night.
Advanced Competencies
- Real options valuation and flexible decision-making
- Monte Carlo simulation for risk modeling
- International project evaluation with currency considerations
- Merger and acquisition financial analysis
Industry Applications Phase
Different industries have unique capital budgeting challenges. We examine sector-specific considerations and learn to adapt frameworks for manufacturing, technology, healthcare, and resource industries.
Sector-Specific Knowledge
- Technology project valuation with rapid obsolescence
- Resource project economics and commodity cycles
- Infrastructure project evaluation and public-private considerations
- Service industry capacity and location decisions
Implementation Phase
The final phase focuses on putting everything together. You'll develop frameworks for your own organisation and create processes that ensure good capital allocation becomes systematic rather than ad hoc.
Practical Deliverables
- Custom evaluation frameworks for your industry
- Decision-making templates and checklists
- Post-investment review processes
- Communication strategies for stakeholder buy-in
