"''The CAFM course is extremely beneficial and I highly recommend it. The material is very interesting, provides the candidate with the necessary knowledge to create a financial model on excel and using VBA, and eventually enables the candidate to be comfortable in creating different kinds of models depending on the need for it''." - Dana Ghandour
" I've have really felt satisfied in taking this course, and I've gotten what I really wanted from understanding more about how to master my work in MS Excel, how to use Visual Basic Application to do my own formulas, macros, and models, how to create very dynamic models in evaluating a firm and doing some forecasts, how to do some sensitivity analysis in very easy ways, and a lot of other beneficial topics. In addition to the benefits of the course, the tutor was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the given topics. Getting this course has absolutely improved my knowledge and taught me new ways of being professional at my future work...A lot of thanks to all tutors, trainers, and administrators in the IFA." - Mohammad Assaad
"I wanted to reach out and express my great satisfaction with the CAFM course at IFA. The course provided a lot of real life application especially with valuation and financial decision making techniques. VBA was a blast and I’m using it all the time at my job. The most impressive part was actually Louay. He made the course very enjoyable. He gave us many real life examples and taught us how to apply what we are learning. He was very flexible and very enthusiastic. He made this course one of the best learning experiences I’ve ever had. I want to really thank you and IFA for this excellent course and a wonderful experience. " - Mohamad Alwan
"All in all the course was really beneficial on various levels. The good thing about is the practicality aspect of the material. It didn't only cover concepts in finance but rather how these several concepts can be applied in our day to day tasks. Louay was great as well, he was able to cater for the different backgrounds of all the students and focus the class in way to allow everybody to fully comprehend financial modeling in his respective line of work.

For them, every student is an asset and they are willing to offer all kind of support needed to help you reach your objective. This applies to instructors and IFA team.

I highly recommend IFA for those who are looking to pursue CFA designation as well as other designations. Thank you" - Mohamad Ziad mabsout

I hope that we would cross paths once more in the future." - Adel Naji
"“I cannot speak highly enough about IFA and its role in helping me pass the 3 levels of CFA examinations.

Thank you IFA and I wish nothing but continued success for the IFA family.”" - Omar Halabi

"I recently sat for the May 2019 FRM Part I exam, where I successfully passed with high quartiles in each of the topics related to the FRM.I would not have been able to sail through the exam without the help of these different class instructors, amazing facilities and supporting material provided by IFA themselves, and the continuous support you get outside the classroom. I highly recommend anyone who wants to pursue the FRM certification to enroll at IFA and I am personally very grateful and cannot thank them enough. " - Mario Mansour
