The Best Online Investment Banking Training is DealMaven, TTS or some else?
TTS offer online course of $199 for one year. DealMaven has a 2-level package of $649. Does it mean TTS is too simple, even compared to DealMaven Level I?
Thanks for your sharing!!

is the best one.
Thanks Will1220! Could you please provide more insights? Why do you think Analyst Exchange is the best one, compared TTS and DealMaven? Thanks again!!
than the analyst exchange. TTS trains MOST if not ALL new analyst class at BBs. Deal maven is also excellent and has several useful blogs and Q&A sessions with senior instructors.
I'm interested in comments from those that have dealt with theanalystexchange as well...
Ive been doing some training with analyst exchange and Ive been happy with the trainers and flexibility with doing it, can do it remotely and is one on one on your own time and schedule which is nice.
I have completed both TTS and DealMaven, as well as a couple other (non-online) courses. I have not completed the analyst exchange.
The online TTS course is a good high-level overview of the basic valuation analysis (comps, dcf, lbo, etc.). It fails to go get into much depth on any of the specific valuations, but is a good starting point.
DealMaven is an online excel modeling course. It is good for increasing efficiency and excel proficiency as well as providing an intro to modeling. The chief strength of DealMaven is the model that you build from scratch at the end of Level 1. I have not completed Level 2. The chief weakness (in my oppinion) of DealMaven is that the formatting they teach is crap. Most bankers eyes would start to burn if you turned in your DealMaven-style model to them. So take it for what its worth.
I would recommend exposing yourself to as many training programs as you have the time and money for. They can only help, and they'll be worth the money if you can hit the ground running better then your fellow analysts. Also, there are a lot of good books out there that may supplement your training. Good luck!

Hi mschutzy and all others,
I agreed that TTS online course is pretty simple according to its lowest price ($199 for one year). But which is better one between Analyst Exchange and DealMaven? I searched through this forum and found 2 post said the analyst exchange is the most comprehensive ONLINE course. What do you think of that or do you know other's experience of its ONLINE course? Thanks!!
mschutzy and anyone else - could you provide any insight on wallstreetprep. what is the best program to learn in-depth modelling in your opinion?
Has a great book "Vauation: Measuring and Managing the value of companies" was a great intro book that had a ton of excel work towards the later chapters. There is also a workbook that you can buy seperately that syncs up with the book, and is basically all excel driven (with answers in the back).
between dealmaven (L1 & 2) and WST, which is the better online modelling tutorial?
According to DealMaven's site, they teach Bear, Citi, Lehman, JP Morgan, Evercore, Rothschild, amongst others. Training-the-Street does Merrill, UBS, Jefferies and a few more I believe. You cannot go wrong either way.
The big thing, for me at least, was that DealMaven offers a 'Certification in Applied Financial Modeling and Analysis' which is more of a tangible indicator of your knowledge base.
Loose example: It's the difference between saying "I took a course and studied modeling" and "i passed a certification exam that deals with modeling". Deal Maven would be my personal preference, solely for the certification option.
1Eric1, any idea on how DealMaven stacks up to WallStreetPrep....I have already searched this profusely, am just looking for your opinion...Thanks
I'm doing a lot of research myself. The Analyst Exchange looks like the most comprehensive so far, and they do offer certification. But it's live one on one instruction, it's not self study, so there's a lot of benefits with having a "personal trainer"...any one else have experience with these guys?
The Analyst Exchange is the most advanced program available. Anyone who says differently has never taken a course with them. Don't believe all the hype about seminar programs like TTS. They are long and boring and don't offer nearly the level of quality the The Analyst Exchange offers its students. Also, I agree with others that DealMaven is not the best take home course. I bought their program but I got very frustrated with the material. My co-worker suggested The Analyst Exchange because he had taken a course with them. He was right. It was a great program. I learned so much I got promoted and became the go to guy for any modeling related questions at work. If you really need to learn modeling correctly you need to take this program. The price might be a little more than most are willing to spend but it is well worth it.

AMT
We had AMT with our bank and the guy was phenomenal. He managed to make training almost interesting.
Did your bank use one of these courses? We had a retired Morgan md teach us but it wasn't Wall Street Prep or anything like that .........
tts
Bump --- I have to just say that Tony D made me laugh my ass off.
Does anyone have learning materials that they'd like to trade? I have gathered quite a few from my own ibanking training sessions and would be happy to exchange as I am always trying to learn and improve. Please PM me. Thanks. -MagicMonkey
The best Financial Training Providers? (Originally Posted: 06/16/2011)
Hi folks, I'm looking for Investment Banking schools or financial training providers in the US, Europe or the middle east, mainly Dubai. I mean, where do small I-banks send new analysts? and how do associate develop themselves? Where do they go?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Check out the Guides section on WallStreetOasis. They have guides for all sorts of banking/finance interests. Also there is an ad (at least for me there is) on the bottom of this thread that says, "Master Financial Modeling" by Wall Street Prep.
im doing the premium package now, along with the financial reports navigation supplement, accounting supplement, and excel for dummies supplement, and am extremely satisfied thus far. well worth the money
