Learn Finance From People Who've Actually Done It
Our programs aren't built around theory pulled from textbooks. They come from real experience working with Australian businesses, handling actual financial challenges, and finding solutions that work in practice.
We teach what we know because we've been there ourselves. Every lesson reflects years of hands-on work helping businesses understand their numbers and make better decisions.
Who's Teaching You
We're not academic professors who've never dealt with a real P&L statement. We've spent years working directly with businesses across Sydney and beyond.

How We Actually Teach
We don't lecture at you for hours. Our sessions mix real examples from businesses we've worked with, practical exercises using actual financial scenarios, and plenty of time to ask questions about your specific situation. The goal is understanding, not memorization.

How Our Programs Work
Our next cohort starts in September 2025. We run small groups because financial education works better when you can ask questions freely and get individual attention.
Sessions happen twice weekly over three months. That gives you time to apply what you learn and bring back real questions from your business.

- Access to financial tools and templates we've built over the years
- Follow-up support for six months after the program ends
- Small group size capped at twelve participants
