NSH leadership created the Analyst Training Program (ATP) in 2009. Seeing the need and desire for entrepreneurship training outside of the classroom setting, NSH initiated ATP to train Northwestern students in due diligence and business plan writing.

The Program encompasses 5 weeks during Fall quarter. Its curriculum is taught in a case study method that emphasizes business model evaluation and management skills. In addition, ATP exposes analysts to NSH’s Board of Directors, an esteemed group of professionals with extensive business experience.

Following completion of The Program, analysts will be prepared to evaluate new business ideas and step into leadership positions in the future. Applications to The Program are accepted at all times, with formal recruiting taking place at the beginning of every Fall quarter.
