Here is a list of learning resources (websites, books, videos, and tools) I recommend.
Many of these learning resources, I have used personally in the very recent past. Some of the resources I currently use. While others I still consult from time to time.
As time flies by, I’d try to get this page up-to-date with all the cool resources I use as an FP&A expert.
Hang on and Enjoy,
