I am convinced that each of us is granted moments of grace, where, if nosotros are opened upward to the possibility, nosotros detect out what nosotros are meant to do amongst our lives. For me, ane of those moments occurred inwards the 2nd yr of my MBA programme at UCLA, when, cash poor, I decided to hold out a instruction assistant for a quarter to earn some money. At the fourth dimension I made that decision, my plans were typical of many of my MBA cohort, to acquire a chore inwards consulting or investment banking, as well as to brand my piece of work upward the corporate ladder, but the twenty-four hours that I walked inwards to learn my commencement session, I knew that I had institute my calling. I was going to hold out a teacher, though I was non certain what I would hold out teaching, or to whom. As fate would receive got it, I institute myself fascinated past times finance, as well as I ended upward every bit a finance professor at NYU's work concern school. I receive got never regretted that choice, but when asked to depict what I do, I nonetheless tell people that I am a teacher, non a professor, a researcher or an academic.
Back to the Classroom!
Starting inwards 1986, I receive got been instruction almost every semester at Stern, but I receive got had a intermission of almost a yr as well as a one-half from my degree room teaching, the commencement yr representing a long-delayed sabbatical as well as the final one-half yr reflecting a selection that I made to do all my instruction inwards ane semester this academic yr (2018-19). During that period, I continued to learn my short-term (2 to 3 day) classes inwards unlike parts of the globe, as well as acre I receive got enjoyed these visits immensely, I receive got missed my regular classroom. I am thence looking forwards to a novel semester as well as 3 novel classes this spring, a corporate finance degree that I teach, primarily to commencement yr MBAs, a valuation class, an elective for by as well as large 2nd yr MBAs, as well as some other valuation degree for undergraduates inwards their sophomore, junior as well as senior years. If y'all are non at Stern, y'all volition non hold out able to sit down inwards the degree but through the wonders of technology, y'all tin nonetheless receive got these classes. With no farther ado, permit me depict them as well as offering y'all the choices.
Corporate Finance (MBA)
If at that topographic point is ane degree inwards finance that everyone, no thing what their paths inwards life or work concern may be, should take, it is corporate finance. Corporate finance is a degree that covers the commencement principles that regulation how a work concern should hold out run as well as its accomplish is complete. Every determination that a theatre makes is ultimately a corporate finance decision, no thing which functional surface area (marketing, production, personnel) it originates from, as well as that is the perspective I receive got inwards the class. I learn the degree to a greater extent than or less what I telephone proper name upward my large painting page, where I form work concern decisions into investing, finance as well as dividend groupings as well as frame how to brand those decisions amongst an destination objective of increasing the value of the business.

You volition notice chapter numbers as well as sessions nether each topic, amongst the chapters representing chapters inwards my Applied Corporate Finance book, a mass that I loved writing but ane that is so hopelessly over priced that I do non require it for my ain class, as well as the sessions showing the sequence of the degree through the 26 sessions that start on Feb 4, 2019 as well as destination on May 13, 2019. The degree meets every Mon as well as Midweek during this period, barring the intermission calendar week of May 16-23, as well as the syllabus for the degree tin hold out institute at this link. If y'all cannot hold out inwards these classes inwards person, don't fret since the classes volition hold out recorded as well as hold out available for y'all to watch, non inwards existent time, but close 2-3 hours afterwards each degree is done. To follow along amongst the webcasts (each close lxxx minutes long), you tin also access the slides that I usage for each class, every bit good every bit additional material. Finally, I demand a dandy bargain of my degree (weekly puzzles, add together on videos, exams as well as a project) as well as if y'all want, y'all tin also do the puzzles, receive got the exams as well as do the project, though y'all volition receive got to degree yourself (with a template that I volition position online). You tin fifty-fifty read the emails I ship my class, as well as I ship close a hundred over the course of written report of a semester, at this link. If y'all prefer your videos on YouTube, y'all tin try the playlist for the class, as well as if your preference is for an iTunes U version, this link should receive got y'all to the site. The adept tidings is that it volition cost y'all goose egg (other than your fourth dimension as well as possibly a few relationships) but the bad tidings is that y'all volition non acquire whatsoever official certification, if that is what y'all are looking for.
Valuation (Undergraduate as well as MBA)
I receive got a fondness for this class, since I created as well as taught the commencement full-semester version of it, at whatsoever work concern school, inwards 1987. I was told as well as so that at that topographic point was non plenty "stuff" inwards valuation to create amount a class, as well as acre that mightiness receive got been truthful at that time, I receive got institute plenty to create amount inwards the gaps since. As the championship of the degree indicates, this is a degree close valuation. Valuing what, y'all mightiness ask, as well as my response would hold out "just close everything" from stocks to bitcoin to the Kardashians. The painting below captures the wide accomplish of the class:

As I learn it, this is a degree that is non exclusively close valuing assets but also pricing them (I am afraid that y'all receive got to sit down inwards on the degree to detect out the difference) as well as it looks at valuation/pricing from a diversity of perspectives (investors looking at a stock, managers using value to guide determination making as well as fifty-fifty accountants writing disclosure as well as accounting rules). As those of y'all who read my weblog know, my fidelity is to intrinsic value, but I endeavor to hold an opened upward hear on unlike perspective as well as approaches inwards this class.
As amongst the corporate finance class, nosotros volition come across every Mon as well as Midweek for xiv (15) weeks, starting Feb 4 (January 28) for my MBA (undergraduate) class. If y'all are wondering which version to follow, I volition relieve y'all the trouble, since the classes are identical inwards content as well as delivery, since I don't believe that at that topographic point is whatsoever argue why I should challenge a brilliant 21-year quondam less than a brilliant 28-year old; historic menstruation as well as piece of work sense tin plow over the latter to a greater extent than perspective but this is oft offset past times the extra disclose energy as well as curiosity that youth brings to the table. The links that y'all tin usage to follow the degree are inwards the tabular array below for both versions of the class:
| Webcast page | YouTube Playlist | iTunes U class | Starts | Ends | # Sessions | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
MBA Valuation | 4-Feb-19 | 13-May-19 | 26 | |||
Undergraduate Valuation | 28-Jan-19 | 13-May-19 | 28 |
With both versions of the valuation class, I volition also hold out posting what I telephone proper name upward my valuation of the week, a fellowship that I volition value, amongst links to the excel spreadsheet as well as the storey behind the value. I encourage you, if y'all are taking the class, officially or unofficially, to receive got my valuation as well as acquire inwards your own, changing the storey as well as the inputs, as well as and so recording your valuation inwards a shared Google spreadsheet. In a Blue Planet where crowds determine what movies are successes (Rotten Tomatoes) as well as which restaurants nosotros swallow at (Yelp reviews), nosotros tin create our version of crowd valuations. It is an optional exercise, but the to a greater extent than people who participate, the to a greater extent than fun that nosotros tin have.
Other Options
I am nether no illusions that y'all are sitting around, wherever y'all are inwards the world, amongst goose egg ameliorate to do than watching 2 long sessions each calendar week from Feb through May. Watching long lecture videos on my tablet is non my thought of fun as well as acre some of y'all volition start amongst the objective of sitting inwards on the class, life volition acquire inwards the way. There are 3 options that y'all tin consider, depending upon your constraints:
Finally, y'all are ever welcome to pick the parts of each degree that involvement y'all as well as ignore the rest. The destination game is learning, as well as what interests me may non involvement you.
Bottom Line
I know that at that topographic point are some who state that those who can, do, as well as those who cannot, teach, as well as I receive got been told that or variants of it multiple times. I don't hear the insult, since I receive got a thick skin, but I know that at that topographic point is goose egg else inwards the Blue Planet I would rather do. I response to no ane (other than my wife), pick when or where I piece of work (for the most part), acquire a jeopardy to alter how people retrieve as well as brand a decent living. If your want is to deal other people's money, hold out an equity question analyst or investment banker, or to start as well as run your ain company, I wishing y'all the really best, but I am lucky to hold out doing what I love, as well as I would hold out foolish to merchandise it inwards for to a greater extent than money or prestige.

Watching long lecture videos on my tablet is non my thought of fun as well as acre some of y'all volition start amongst the objective of sitting inwards on the class, life volition acquire inwards the way. There are 3 options that y'all tin consider, depending upon your constraints:
- If fourth dimension is your constraint: One of the advantages of taking the degree or classes online is that y'all do non receive got to do destination the degree inwards May 2019. In fact, the webcasts for the degree volition rest on for at to the lowest degree some other yr afterwards the degree ends. So, if y'all similar the long degree format, y'all tin stretch the degree out for longer, if all y'all demand is to a greater extent than time.
- If format is your concern: If y'all detect your attending lagging or your encephalon decomposing because the lectures are likewise long, I receive got created online versions of both classes (plus a 3rd ane on investment philosophies), where I receive got compressed my lxxx infinitesimal sessions into 12-15 minutes each. Without giving away whatsoever merchandise secrets, as well as at the jeopardy of discounting the value of an MBA, it was non hard to do. As amongst the regular classes, these are nonetheless free, nonetheless come upward amongst slides as well as post degree quizzes but offering no official certification.
- If y'all want accreditation: Even if y'all receive got my classes online religiously, mastering every nook as well as cranny of the topic, as well as acing every quiz, I do non receive got the bandwidth or the say-so to mitt out accreditation or certificates. Three years ago, I remedied this, amongst the assist of NYU, past times creating certificate versions of the online classes (with shorter duration videos). The pluses are that the videos are to a greater extent than polished than the ones I created for the costless version, at that topographic point is to a greater extent than administrative back upward as well as an active message board where y'all tin chat amongst others taking the degree as well as y'all volition acquire a certificate at the destination of the class. I volition also, at to the lowest degree for the foreseeable future, also do alive hourly WebEx sessions ane time every 2 weeks as well as degree your projects. The minus is that NYU does non plow over away certificates for costless as well as if y'all acquire sticker shock, delight don't brand me your target. The determination on whether the certificate is worth the fee is yours to make, as well as the links to both the costless as well as the NYU certificate versions are below.

Finally, y'all are ever welcome to pick the parts of each degree that involvement y'all as well as ignore the rest. The destination game is learning, as well as what interests me may non involvement you.
