Most participants bring their laptops and follow along as we navigate through company filings together. It's more like a study group than a formal class.
- How to find and access financial statements efficiently
- Which metrics reveal company health beyond headline numbers
- Common accounting practices that obscure real performance

Why People Attend
Workshops give you a chance to work through real examples with guidance. Many participants find that seeing how others approach analysis helps clarify their own thinking.
Hands-On Practice
You'll analyze actual company reports during the session, not just watch someone else do it. Most people say the practical work helps concepts click into place.
Ask Real Questions
When you're confused about something in a financial statement, you can ask right away. The discussions that follow often reveal insights nobody expected.
Build Your Process
There's no single "correct" way to analyze companies. These workshops help you develop an approach that makes sense for your situation and goals.
Meet Other Learners
People who attend tend to keep in touch afterward. Having others to discuss ideas with makes continuing your learning easier and more interesting.
How to Register
Sessions are limited to twenty participants so everyone has room to work and ask questions. We usually fill up about six weeks before each workshop date.
You don't need any special background or experience. Some participants are complete beginners, others have been investing for years and want to sharpen their analysis skills.
Bring a laptop if you have one, though we can provide materials to work with if needed. We'll send detailed session information once you register.
