What You'll Actually Learn Here

Real analytical skills that help when you're making decisions with your own money.

Reading financial statements and quarterly reports

Reading Financial Statements

Balance sheets aren't scary once you know what matters. We'll show you how to spot red flags and find companies with solid fundamentals, skipping the accounting jargon that nobody uses anyway.

Market analysis and valuation techniques

Valuation Methods That Make Sense

Price-to-earnings ratios are just the beginning. Learn when to use discounted cash flow analysis and when simpler comparisons tell you more. We cover what works in real scenarios, not textbook theory.

Risk assessment and portfolio analysis tools

Risk Assessment Basics

Every investment carries risk. We'll help you understand volatility, correlation, and how different asset classes behave during market stress. Building resilient portfolios starts with honest risk evaluation.

Step-by-step investment analysis process

How Our Approach Works

We break down complex concepts into manageable pieces. You'll work through real company examples and build analytical skills gradually over six months.

  • 1 Start with fundamentals: understanding what makes businesses profitable and sustainable over time
  • 2 Move into financial analysis: reading annual reports and extracting meaningful insights from numbers
  • 3 Learn valuation techniques: comparing companies and determining if current prices make sense
  • 4 Build your framework: develop a personal approach that matches your risk tolerance and goals
Birgitta Månsson, Investment Analysis Instructor

Taught by Birgitta Månsson

Birgitta spent twelve years analyzing Canadian small-cap companies before switching to education in 2019. She's worked through two recessions and learned what separates lasting investment strategies from temporary market fads.

Her teaching style focuses on practical application rather than academic theory. Students work through real financial statements and learn to ask the right questions before committing capital.

The hardest part of investing isn't finding opportunities, it's staying patient when everyone else is panicking or chasing returns. Good analysis helps you maintain perspective during both extremes.
