Examination overview
A professional test of financial modelling judgement.
The final certificate examination measures whether a participant can turn financial information into a controlled model and a decision-ready recommendation.
01What is assessed
Candidates are evaluated across model structure, historical analysis, driver-based forecasting, integrated statements, scenarios, valuation, and professional communication.
- Professional model structure and formula discipline
- Historical analysis and management insight
- Working capital, PPE, debt, interest, and cash
- DCF, comparable valuation, and enterprise-to-equity bridge
02The central case question
Should Nour Foods proceed with its five-year growth and capacity plan, and what conditions should the CFO impose? The case is fictional and designed solely for education and assessment.
03The standard
Candidates are not assessed only on the final number. Logic, assumptions, checks, consistency, reasoning, and the recommendation all matter.
