Thank you for providing such an exceptional course on Project Finance Modeling. I struggle to find a critique in my reflection. Both trainers were extremely helpful and positive, which made the course that much greater. I want to especially thank you for coming back to follow up on the Macro’s Lessons. That piece really tied the course together for me and further demonstrated Pivotal180’s dedication to excellence.

Seyler Skudneski  ING – Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling  August 2023 In-Person New York

The course was very well presented, and done in a way that really explained the logic and concepts behind the model as well as creating the model itself. Also really great to pick up a lot of good tips about best practice modelling. The online materials are also a really good base for the in class learning.

Hoping to be able to do a bit more of your classes going forward.

Detailed and pedagogical!

As someone new to finance, this course was a bit like drinking out of a fire hose. I think this course is perfect with someone who has a basic foundation in Excel and finance and wants a more detailed understanding. Still, I was super impressed by the attention to detail for each lesson and the amount of information contained.

Excellent course

Complete breakdown of the financial model into great detail, with excellent lessons and examples. Even though the material can be quite dry, lessons were given in a very engaging and even fun way. Loved the occasional jokes, will definitely recommend!

 Haydn was brilliant, and I don’t throw that out lightly.

I teach,  do seminars, and SME for many clients and have pretty high expectations – not many people could have kept me positively engaged for 10 sessions. The material is exceptionally well organized to tie-in the “model building” with the “model thinking” which is challenging for the complexity of the material.

Informative and easy to follow

I already have several years of experience in renewable energy modelling, but I still found that Pivotal180 training included several tips & tricks along the way (esp. regarding model set up and design) that I will incorporate into my own work. I also thought the lectures strike a good balance between the “why” we need to know about the underlying details of a project and “how” we translate that into a model; e.g. being able to set up and size a term loan correctly.

The trainers were outstanding and they contributed to the quality of the virtual training sessions and the effectiveness of the interchange was enhanced by the professionalism they displayed in providing videoconferencing support and on-line access platforms for regulatory knowledge enhancement.

Thank you so much for your training! I wish I had this training so much earlier in my career, it was very helpful and I’m sure it will benefit us greatly in the future. I wouldn’t change a thing!  Colin Harris Greenbank – Tailored Course 

I feel  this was incredibly helpful, and we have already run into several instances where we have been able to translate something from the course into our daily work. Jordyn and I both agreed that we would recommend this course for anyone new to our company as an analyst. It can be difficult to catch up when you work for a smaller company, and this course filled in A LOT of knowledge gaps we have had since day 1.

It was exceptional learning through the platform and I cannot say enough good things about you guys. I recommend you to everyone who needs to know anything about modeling. Thank you all for all the effort you put into this. You’ve passed on invaluable skills to many professionals who need it and I’m grateful that I was one of them. Talio Naidoo on Renewable Energy Online Training 

I took this course to improve my renewable energy project finance knowledge and capabilities as I look to move from the construction industry in to renewable energy finance and I found the course incredibly valuable. The course instructor was very knowledgeable and the lessons were very well run. The content in the virtual platform that is available outside of the lessons were a great resource to help me build my competencies in certain areas that I felt I needed to develop further. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to develop a solid foundation in renewable energy project finance modelling.
