Questions
Frequently Asked
-
Our boot camps are the in-person version of our online FMC® Program. They both use the same presentations, instructional materials, exercises, and financial models. And they are both taught using the same general style. With our boot camps, candidates get the added bonus of being instructed by a trainer and being in a group with other students to learn from.
-
When we have an in-person presence at a university, we tend to conduct 2-4 boot camps on an annual basis. For example, we might host boot camps in September, November, February, and March of each year.
Ideally we can host our boot camps in a PC computer lab with 20-25 computers. However, if that’s not possible, we can host boot camps in rooms with classroom style seating where students bring in their PC and/or Mac laptops. Once we have a location and date for a boot camp locked down, we can produce a landing page and marketing materials and start spreading the word about the boot camp.
