Budget automation learning session in progress
Live & recorded sessions

Webinars on
budget automation
that actually stick

Each session focuses on one concrete problem - a formula that breaks, a report that takes too long, a process nobody documented. Instructors work through real examples, not slides full of theory.

Group · Intermediate

Connecting data sources without breaking reports

Covers how to pull figures from multiple sheets or external files into one reporting view - and how to structure references so they don't collapse when data shifts.

Tuesdays · 17:00 GMT 75 min
Private · On request

One-to-one: your budget, your tools

You share your current setup before the session. The instructor reviews it and structures the 60 minutes around the specific gaps in your workflow.

Flexible scheduling 60 min

Variance tracking without pivot fatigue

A recorded walkthrough of building a variance report that flags deviations above a threshold - no pivot tables, just conditional logic and structured references.

Group · Beginner

First steps: what to automate and what to leave alone

Not everything in a budget process benefits from automation. This session maps out where the effort pays off and where it tends to create more problems than it solves.

Wednesdays · 16:00 GMT 60 min
Group · Advanced

Error handling in automated budget models

Covers the common failure points in automated models - circular references, broken lookups, silent overrides - and practical ways to catch them before they reach a report.

Mondays · 19:00 GMT 90 min
How   sessions   are   structured

Every session opens with a short framing of the problem, then moves into live demonstration. Participants can ask questions throughout - not just at the end.

Pre-session material Sent 48 hours before - a short brief on what will be covered and any files to download in advance.
Live interaction Chat and voice Q&A are open throughout. Instructors pause to address questions as they come up, not at a fixed slot.
Skill level labelling Each session is tagged clearly - beginner, intermediate, or advanced - so you join the one that matches where you actually are.
No assumed software Sessions cover logic and structure, not a specific tool. Most examples use spreadsheets - Excel or Sheets - but the principles transfer.

Group sessions keep numbers small on purpose. A room of 12 people lets the instructor actually respond to what participants are doing, not just broadcast to an audience.

From participants

A few notes from people who joined sessions - shared with permission, edited only for length.

The session on data connections was the first time I understood why my VLOOKUP kept returning the wrong column. The instructor showed exactly where the reference slips - something I'd been guessing at for months.

Fionnuala Ó Briain
Finance analyst, joined group session

I booked a private session because my budget model was genuinely unusual - multi-currency, multiple approvers. The instructor had read through my file before we started and the hour felt like it was built for my situation.

Tibor Vásárhelyi
Operations lead, private session

I expected a webinar to feel passive. This one didn't - questions in the chat got picked up mid-demo, not saved for a Q&A at the end that nobody has energy for. Small thing, but it changes how much you take in.

Ragnhild Søvik
Budget coordinator, group session

The variance tracking recording is something I've gone back to three times. Having it available for 30 days meant I could watch the part about conditional logic again when I was actually building it, not just right after the session.
