Learn From Someone Who's Actually Done It

Callum Thornbury spent twelve years working through market volatility, building models that held up when things got messy. He's been in the room when forecasts went sideways and taught himself to spot warning signs most analysts miss.

His approach comes from experience, not academia. You'll work with data sets that mirror what businesses actually face—incomplete information, conflicting signals, tight deadlines.

Techniques That Actually Matter in Practice

We skip the basics and focus on what makes analysts indispensable when the pressure's on. These are methods you'd usually learn after years on the job.

  • Multi-variable regression analysis for spotting hidden correlations in messy datasets
  • Monte Carlo simulation for stress-testing assumptions before they blow up
  • Sensitivity mapping to show stakeholders which factors really drive outcomes
  • Time-series decomposition for separating signal from seasonal noise
  • Cohort analysis that reveals behaviour patterns traditional metrics miss

Three Distinct Learning Phases

Each phase builds on practical application. You won't just understand the methods—you'll know when to use them and why.

Foundation Module

Eight weeks working with actual business scenarios. You'll reconstruct analyses from companies that faced real decisions and see what worked versus what looked good in presentations.

Applied Techniques

Twelve weeks tackling increasingly complex problems. Each assignment mirrors situations where standard approaches fail and you need to adapt methodology on the fly.

Capstone Project

Six weeks building a comprehensive analysis from scratch. You'll defend your approach to people who've seen every shortcut and know which questions expose weak reasoning.

What Makes This Different

No Pretending Data is Clean

Real datasets have gaps, inconsistencies, and contradictions. We teach you to work with what you've got, not what textbooks pretend exists. That means learning to document assumptions and communicate uncertainty honestly.

Context Over Formulas

Anyone can plug numbers into software. The hard part is knowing which analysis fits the question and explaining limitations to non-technical stakeholders who need to make decisions anyway.

Mentorship That Matters

You'll get feedback from analysts who've made the mistakes you're about to make. They'll show you what to watch for and share the shortcuts that actually save time without compromising quality.

Petra Lindqvist

Methodology Specialist

Petra designs the problem sets you'll work through. She pulls scenarios from her time advising firms during restructuring—situations where getting the analysis wrong had immediate consequences. Her background in both quantitative research and operational finance means she knows which skills transfer and which ones just look impressive on paper.

Enrolment for our September 2025 cohort opens in April. If you're serious about advancing beyond basic analytics, we should talk about whether this fits where you want to go.
