Linkedin Learning w/CFI Financial Analysis and Modeling Professional Certificate doubt.
Hi guys,
I'm a master's degree student of Economics, but my course is mostly regulatory based, it is very good to introduce you in the compliance departments, but It lacks technical courses (Python, Excel, Data related courses) so I decided to self study softwares that could help me land positions in FP&A.
I have started learning excel from scratch from youtube and here's what i've learned:
-(ifs, count/sum/average(ifs),
-Datacleaning (Trim, Upper,Lower, Proper, Date, Len, Right, Mid, Left)
-Pivot Charts/Tables (with also calculated fields)
- Sensitivity analysis by modifying P&Ls and see how margins change.
-xLOOKUP, vlookup, index/match with iferror (to strenghten formulas and formatting).
-sometimes i get stuck with different formats(i'm from italy and the problem occurs when there are US dates ) on the dates, i run powerquery and solve everything by making the query recognize the program, otherwise Text-to-column.
i have started the CFI Financial Analysis and Modeling Professional Certificate on linkedin learning.
is it good on your opinion? just to land the first internship or first roles (eventhought is late), im planning on creating my own projects as well
