Built by Analysts, for Analysts

We started tavoreliqua in 2019 because we couldn't find training that matched how valuation work actually happens. Too much theory, not enough spreadsheet reality. So we built something different.

The Origin Story

Back in 2018, I was running valuation workshops for a mid-tier advisory firm in Melbourne. The feedback was always the same: people wanted less textbook examples and more real-world messiness.

You know, the kind where data's incomplete, management projections seem optimistic, and your Excel model keeps breaking at 2am before a client presentation.

That's when we decided to create tavoreliqua. Not another certification program, but practical training that respects your time and tackles actual challenges you face.

We launched with twelve participants in our first cohort. Now we run programs across Australia with specialists who've spent years in the trenches doing this work.

How We Approach Teaching

We don't follow the traditional academic model. Our programs focus on building skills you'll use next week, not just theoretical frameworks.

Real Case Studies

Every module includes actual valuation scenarios from recent transactions. We anonymize the details but keep the complexity intact so you learn to handle ambiguity.

Small Group Sessions

We cap our cohorts at twenty participants. This way you get direct feedback on your models and can ask questions without competing for attention.

Flexible Scheduling

Most of our sessions run in the evening or on weekends. We know you're balancing this with client work and deadlines that don't wait.

Who Runs tavoreliqua

Our programs are designed and taught by people who still do this work professionally. No career academics here.

Sienna Valtorta

Director of Learning

Sienna spent eight years at two Big Four firms working on complex valuations before launching tavoreliqua. She still consults on selected engagements and brings that current experience into every program we run. Her specialty is making DCF models less intimidating and helping analysts spot red flags in management forecasts.

What We Believe

Valuation isn't just about formulas and discount rates. It's judgment, pattern recognition, and knowing when to push back on assumptions that don't hold up.

We believe learning happens best when you're working through actual problems, not just watching presentations. That's why our programs include hands-on model building and peer review sessions where you defend your approach.

Practical skills matter more than theory
Small cohorts create better learning
Current practitioners make better teachers
Honest feedback helps you improve faster

Join Our Next Cohort

Our September 2025 programs are now open for registration. Spaces fill quickly because we keep groups small. If you're ready to strengthen your valuation skills with practical training, we'd be glad to have you.
