Start Your JourneyLearn Together, Grow Together
Our approach centers around building genuine connections between learners. You'll work alongside business owners, finance professionals, and entrepreneurs who share similar challenges and goals.
Think of it as having a study group that actually makes sense for your business. Instead of working through generic case studies alone, you'll tackle real financial scenarios with peers who understand the pressure of making decisions that affect their bottom line.
- Small cohorts of 8-12 participants for meaningful interaction
- Peer mentoring partnerships that extend beyond coursework
- Group project work on actual business finance challenges
- Regular networking sessions with local finance professionals
Three Distinct Learning Pathways
Each track focuses on different aspects of business finance, but all emphasize collaborative problem-solving and peer learning.
Financial Foundations
Master cash flow management, budgeting, and financial reporting through group exercises and peer review sessions. Perfect for business owners who want to understand their numbers better.
Growth Strategy
Learn investment analysis, funding options, and expansion planning alongside other growing businesses. Includes collaborative case studies and group strategy sessions.
Risk Management
Develop skills in financial risk assessment, insurance planning, and crisis management through scenario planning exercises with your cohort.
Learning Resources & Support
Interactive Workshops
Hands-on sessions where you work through real business scenarios with your learning group. These aren't lecture-style classes – you'll be actively problem-solving together.
Digital Learning Hub
Access course materials, connect with classmates, and continue discussions between sessions. Think of it as your group's private workspace where ideas keep flowing.
Mentor Network
Connect with experienced finance professionals who provide guidance throughout your learning journey. Many of our mentors are program alumni who understand exactly what you're going through.
Your Learning Timeline
Our next program cohort begins in September 2025, giving you time to prepare and connect with your future learning partners before the intensive begins.
Application & Preparation
Submit your application and receive preparation materials. We'll also introduce you to other accepted participants through our online community platform, so you can start building connections early.
Program Launch
Begin with an intensive orientation weekend where you'll meet your cohort in person, establish study groups, and dive into your first collaborative project. This sets the foundation for everything that follows.
Core Learning Phase
Weekly group sessions combined with individual study time. You'll work through increasingly complex financial scenarios with your team, building both knowledge and lasting professional relationships.
Capstone & Graduation
Complete a final group project applying everything you've learned to a real business challenge. Graduate with not just new skills, but a network of peers you can rely on for years to come.
