Why this program matters

  • Without data mastery of BFR, 30% of SMEs suffer critical cash-flow tensions that lead to 25% of annual bankruptcies according to Bpifrance.

  • BFR forecasting errors generate financial overruns of 15% of revenue, blocking investments and growth.

  • Management controllers' careers stagnate against data-driven competitors, risking lost professional opportunities.

  • Invest now in BFR data skills to secure the company and advance professionally.

BFR curriculum: 5 modules over 5 days

Module 1 : BFR Fundamentals: Statistical Diagnosis and Data Tools (Scikit-learn Intro)

Discover the key components of BFR through descriptive analyses in Python, calculate financial ratios on real company datasets, identify treasury optimization levers with Pandas and visualize trends via Matplotlib, perform practical exercises on concrete SME cases, produce an initial BFR diagnosis report ready for immediate use in the company.

Module 2 : BFR Modelling: Linear Regressions and Advanced Stats (R Focus)

Dive into multiple regressions to model BFR, use R to clean accounting data, test correlations between inventories, receivables and payment terms, apply statistical tests to validate models, simulate treasury impact scenarios via Monte Carlo, generate deliverables such as predictive graphs and reusable scripts for your professional team.

Module 3 : BFR Prediction: Machine Learning with Scikit-learn (Decision Trees)

Implement ML algorithms for BFR forecasting, train Random Forest models on financial histories via Scikit-learn, evaluate performance with RMSE metrics and cross-validation, optimize hyperparameters for increased accuracy, handle missing data from real ERPs, produce a deployable predictive prototype in business production.

BFR training: access and practical arrangements

The BFR Training - Optimizing Treasury through Data Science program is delivered onsite or remote (blended-learning, virtual classroom, remote presence). At Learni, an industry-certified training organization, every program is built to maximize skills acquisition regardless of the chosen format.

The trainer alternates between demonstrative, interrogative and active methods (through hands-on labs and/or scenarios). This pedagogical approach guarantees concrete learning that's immediately applicable at work.

Equipment required

For the smooth delivery of the BFR Training - Optimizing Treasury through Data Science program, the following equipment is required:

  • Mac or PC computers, high-speed fiber internet, whiteboard or flipchart, projector or interactive touch screen (for remote sessions)
  • Training environments installed on workstations or accessible online
  • Course materials, hands-on exercises and complementary resources
  • Post-training access to materials and educational resources

For intra-company training on a site outside Learni, the client commits to providing all required teaching materials (computers, internet, etc.) for the smooth delivery of the program in line with the prerequisites in the communicated program.

Skills assessment methods

Assessment of skills acquired during the BFR Training - Optimizing Treasury through Data Science program is performed through:

  • During training: case studies, hands-on labs and professional scenarios
  • End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
  • After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills

Program accessibility

Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.

Enrollment terms and lead times

Registration is possible up to 48 business hours before the start of training. All our programs are built for corporate L&D budgets and delivered onsite or remotely.

The Learni story

Founded by engineers and learning experts, Learni's mission is to make high-impact tech training accessible to teams everywhere. We work remotely with organizations across the US and Canada, in your time zone, to help teams upskill fast.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your BFR training

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
