To make the course more realistic, include short papers / exercises and limit tests to ONE attempt. This will incentivize me to study more and not rely on the number of attempts to carry me to a great score.

The course gives great theory and helps understanding various concepts of PE and VC, wish it had more case study practices and tests especially with all the data coming out from companies in the last months.

It was very interesting and provided info which was easily digestible. However, it would be great if the team wen through the spelling mistakes and include figures which are missing for certain case studies

Great course! The only struggle was going through the formulas too fast (if you are not used to finance and abbreviations) - for some users it could be too advanced and confusing. Otherwise, great stuff!

Excellent introductory course, a general overview, if you are looking for deep financial models and stuff, this is not the right option, but if you want to understand basic principles this is excellent.

Good course, not too difficult, but at some points i had to do a lot of digging to understand the concepts. The best part is that it encapsulates many things(not everything) of this area of financing.

Good introduction for anyone who is new to the topic and good refresher for anyone who is familiar with the area. Excellent use of practical examples. Good coverage of regional/legal system nuances.

Interesting course with P.E fundamentals well structured and explained by PDF documents, online video and exercises. Interviews of P.E profesionnals are getting outdated and should be reniewed.

Not as technical as I was expecting, having the first 2 (of 4) weeks being contextual, even if relevant. Week 3 & 4 more to the point with examples of real applications. Very nice introduction!

Good explanation of topics but a bit lacking in illustrating calcuations. Also, including a separate topic for dealing with accounting and tax considerations of private equity investments is

Great intro to PE and CV, easy to take on even by just focusing on the slides.
Examples are a bit too IT focused and some of the content seem to be a couple of years old already.

Would be great if it could be updated, still has references to 2015.
Also, more case studies would be great. But overall very interestinng and easy-to-follow lecture! Thank you!

Has some good introductory content. The speaker is Italian and his accent is a little difficult. However, there is a transcript below the video you can use to follow along.

Overall, a really good course. I think it might spend too much time on the theoretical side and not enough on the practical side (company valuation). Either way, very good.
