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.

01

What 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

The 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.

03

The standard

Candidates are not assessed only on the final number. Logic, assumptions, checks, consistency, reasoning, and the recommendation all matter.
