I completed the Financial Analytics and Planning course at Stanmore School of Business, and I was impressed by the depth and breadth of the course content. The course covered a wide range of topics, including financial modelling, forecasting, and risk management. I found the course materials to be well-organized and comprehensive, with plenty of examples and case studies to illustrate the concepts. One of the things that I found particularly useful was the emphasis on data analysis and visualization - we learned how to use tools like Excel and Tableau to analyze and present financial data. Overall, I was satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others who are looking to improve their financial analytics skills. However, I did find some of the assignments to be a bit challenging, and I wished there was more feedback from the instructors.
