John Richter (Chief Technical Officer, Financial Mechanics), will be leading an intensive, three-day cash flow modeling workshop for MBA, law school, and engineering students at Stanford University, February 14 -16, 2008.

The workshop will be open to students of Ryan Orr's class Global Project Finance and to selected affiliates of the Collaboratory for Research on Global Projects.

Financial Mechanics has designed the 3-day program based on courses it has developed and delivered to firms throughout the world for the past 10 years. It is a hands-on, extremely practical, skills-oriented course. In describing the course, John wryly commented for our Cardinal readers, "An MBA from a well-known East Coast business school, a career in project finance, and now I am teaching advanced typing and spreadsheet design for Excel. Oh well. I have fun doing it, it's useful stuff, and there is a big need."
