Your 9-Month Journey
Starting September 2025, each cohort follows a carefully structured path from fundamentals to advanced fundraising execution.
Months 1-2: Foundation Building
Master the fundamentals through case studies of successful and failed raises. You'll analyze real pitch decks, understand investor psychology, and learn to identify the right funding partners for different business models.
Months 3-5: Practical Application
Partner with startups in our network to develop actual fundraising materials. Create pitch decks, financial models, and investor outreach strategies while receiving weekly feedback from industry practitioners.
Months 6-8: Advanced Execution
Lead fundraising efforts for partner companies under supervision. Participate in investor meetings, negotiate terms, and manage due diligence processes while building your professional portfolio.
Month 9: Career Transition
Complete your capstone project and transition into the industry. Access our job placement network, receive ongoing mentorship for six months, and join our alumni community of fundraising professionals.
"The program connected me with three different startups during my learning phase. By month six, I was leading investor calls and helping close a Series A round. That experience opened doors I never expected."
Ezekiel Thompson, Investment Associate at Melbourne Ventures
"Working with real companies during the program meant I graduated with actual results to show potential employers. The mentorship from founders who'd been through multiple raises was incredibly valuable."
