I personally took FMVA and I loved it. In terms of financial modeling - it teaches you all required advanced Excel skills including scenario & sensitivity analysis, then walks you through DCF and SOTP (M&A and LBO modeling as electives) and requires you to create them from scratch to pass. Courses on how to build nice pitchbooks as well as accounting refreshers come as a nice bonus.

Edit: It is not free though, but does give away generous financial aid. Haven't heard about decent free financial modeling courses, maybe try Coursera? They have a couple courses on DCF modeling, which you can audit for free.

“Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives, living existences of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon their shoulders is really a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor, that to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become.”
