Who are the Be Your Own CFO courses made for?
Our three Be Your Own CFO course offerings were made with the ambitious contractor or aspiring CFO in mind.
At your current stage of growth, hiring a CFO (or stepping into the role yourself) might be a challenging investment.
If you’re new to the industry or aren’t ready to outsource, our courses provide the construction accounting expertise you need to fill in the gaps.
What’s the difference between each course offering?
Each bundle includes modules from our largest Complete Masterclass plus bonuses.
The Starter Bundle focuses on WIP Reports to help you track jobs, manage cash flow, and forecast your financial future. This bundle includes one bonus lesson: Equipment & Small Tools.
The Core Bundle includes everything in the Starter Bundle plus two additional modules covering your Chart of Accounts and Job Costing. This bundle includes two bonus lessons: Equipment & Small Tools and Payroll & Union Reporting.
The Complete Masterclass includes everything from the previous bundles plus five additional modules covering Accounts Receivable and Accounts payable, Balance Sheet Reconciliations, Cash Management, and more. This bundle includes four bonus lessons: Equipment & Small Tools, Payroll & Union Reporting, Communication, and Leadership.
Each course offering includes video lessons, Excel templates, and downloadable resources.

How are the courses structured?
Our Be Your Own CFO courses are hosted on the Kajabi course platform.
They are self-paced and video-based, with two lessons in each module that build on each other and unlock as you progress through the content.
Once you complete the core content, you will unlock access to the bonus materials.
How long does each course take?
Though the courses are self-paced, the time commitment for each module includes watching the video lessons and doing supplementary assignments.
Here’s an estimate of the time commitment for each bundle:
- Starter Bundle: 1 module, 1 bonus lesson = 4.5 hours
- Core Bundle: 3 modules, 2 bonus lessons = 7 hours
- Complete Masterclass: 8 modules, 4 bonus lessons = 40 hours
What is the investment?
“Buy now, pay later” plans are available for all courses
