Modeling Courses for “Experienced Bankers”?

Howdy - I’m going to be moving from a no name boutique to a tier 1 BB this month (gotta love a hot hiring market). Given that my experience to date has entailed creating P&L level operating models for sub $200MM companies, I am looking for a modeling course that will help get me acclimated to more advanced accounting concepts and public company modeling. 
 

Theres a few courses out there but I really want to get my money’s worth and invest in a course that will help me improve my modeling skill set rather than teach me how to format charts and do simple DCFs. What’s the general consensus on the WSO and TTS-type courses? Any advice on what would be most effective for someone with moderate work experience and no academic background in finance?

Just moved into coverage at a BB from a less modeling heavy role and the group signed me up for the online BIWS prep courses and they're pretty comprehensive. Think the cost is like $597 tho which I would not pay for myself. I think you'll be fine with your experience and you'll just learn on the job like most people but they have free ones too and walkthroughs on YouTube etc
