From Confused to Confident
Starting Point — March 2024
Pattara transferred from retail banking to corporate credit. His economics degree covered theory but didn't prepare him for actual company valuations. First week, his manager asked him to value a manufacturing client. He spent three days building a model that his senior colleague politely tore apart in ten minutes.
Learning Phase — April to July 2024
He found our DCF modeling course and started evenings after work. The material clicked because it explained why certain assumptions matter more than others. Practice cases showed him how to adjust WACC for emerging market risk and when to use transaction multiples versus trading multiples.
Breakthrough — August 2024
A tricky logistics company valuation landed on his desk. This time he structured his analysis properly, documented his assumptions, and prepared three scenarios. His manager approved it with minor tweaks. That feeling of getting it right made the evening study hours worth it.
Current Role — January 2025
Now he's training junior analysts. He uses what he learned to help them avoid the same confusion he experienced. The materials gave him a foundation he builds on every day.
