Master Budget Creation Program
Build real financial planning skills that businesses actually need. Our hands-on program takes you from basic spreadsheets to comprehensive budget systems that drive smart business decisions.
Learn What Actually Works in Business
Most budget training focuses on theory. We focus on the messy reality of business finance. You'll work with actual company data, deal with incomplete information, and learn to build budgets that survive contact with the real world.
Our approach comes from years of helping Taiwan businesses streamline their financial planning. We've seen what works and what doesn't when companies try to implement new budget systems.
Program Structure
The program runs for 16 weeks starting September 2025, with evening sessions designed for working professionals. Each week combines practical exercises with real business scenarios. You'll build a portfolio of budget models that demonstrate your capabilities to potential employers.
What You'll Learn
Our curriculum builds from fundamentals to advanced techniques, with each module preparing you for the next challenge.
Weeks 1-4: Foundation Building
Start with budget fundamentals and financial statement connections. Learn to organize data effectively and spot common errors that derail budget projects. We cover Excel techniques that save hours of work and make your models more reliable.
Weeks 5-8: Revenue Forecasting
Master different approaches to predicting income streams. Work with seasonal businesses, subscription models, and project-based revenue. Learn when simple methods work better than complex formulas, and how to present uncertainty honestly.
Weeks 9-12: Cost Management
