Master Financial Analysis Through Real Market Experience
We teach fundamental analysis the way it actually works in trading rooms and investment firms. Not theories from textbooks. Not outdated formulas. Just the practical skills that help you read balance sheets, spot undervalued companies, and build genuine market insight.

How arowlaramelovbila Evolved
2019
Started with a handful of traders in Brisbane who were frustrated with expensive courses that taught nothing practical. We met in coffee shops and shared what actually worked.
2021
Moved to proper offices in Cairns and developed a structured curriculum based on real case studies from Australian markets. Our first cohort of 30 students finished that autumn.
2023
Partnered with investment firms across Queensland to create internship pathways. Students started getting hands-on experience analyzing actual portfolios rather than hypothetical scenarios.
2025
Now running programs year-round with enrollment opening for our September 2025 intensive. We're still small enough that every student gets direct mentorship, but experienced enough that our methods consistently work.
Cormac Bellweather
Lead Instructor
Former equity analyst who spent twelve years evaluating mining and energy companies. Now focuses on teaching the unglamorous parts of analysis that actually matter.
Teaching Philosophy That Works
Most finance education focuses on passing exams. We focus on building the judgment you need when real money is involved. That means working through messy financial statements, questioning management claims, and understanding when numbers don't add up.
- Every session includes analyzing current Australian companies, not manufactured case studies from overseas textbooks
- Students present their analysis and defend their conclusions against group questioning
- We cover the mistakes analysts make because understanding failures teaches more than studying successes
- Sessions stay small so you get feedback on your specific blind spots and reasoning gaps
What You'll Actually Learn
Reading Financial Statements
Beyond basic accounting. You'll learn to spot red flags in cash flow statements, understand aggressive revenue recognition, and identify when management is manipulating metrics.
Valuation Methods
DCF models, comparable company analysis, and precedent transactions. But more importantly, when each method works and when it misleads you completely.
Industry Analysis
Understanding competitive dynamics, regulatory impacts, and economic cycles. We focus heavily on Australian sectors where you'll likely work.
How Students Apply These Skills
Our graduates work in research departments, portfolio management teams, and private equity firms. Some launch their own analysis practices. The skills transfer because we teach core principles rather than following rigid formulas.
- Building investment memos that portfolio managers actually read and trust
- Conducting due diligence for acquisition targets without missing critical risks
- Presenting company analysis to investment committees with confidence
- Developing your own screening process to identify potential opportunities
September 2025 Program Opens Soon
Our next intensive runs from September through November 2025. Classes meet twice weekly in Cairns, with supplementary online sessions for deep dives into specific companies. Enrollment is limited to maintain the mentorship quality.
