Mercer M&A Ready Academy
Get ready for your next deal with M&A training
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) can be critical to an organization’s growth strategy. Given the intense competition in the market and growing shareholder expectations, getting your M&A strategy right requires a strong understanding of the business, financial and people risks and opportunities associated with deals.
Mercer’s M&A Ready Academy is a training and development curriculum that brings together Mercer’s unique, in-depth insights on the people risks in deals while providing an overview of the entire business and functional deal spectrum.
Whether you are new to M&As or have managed them before, the Academy’s basic training curriculum — designed for corporate development and HR professionals, business and people managers, and beyond — is offered as a modular, digital, on-demand course supplemented with regular, synchronous deep-dive masterclass sessions from Mercer’s M&A experts on critical topics.
Prepare for deal success with M&A training courses
For the past 20 years, over 3,500 business leaders and deal professionals have graduated from Mercer’s M&A Ready program. We’ve helped teams of all sizes prepare more confidently and comprehensively to meet their M&A-related challenges and drive deal value. This year we are excited to offer this program through our new M&A Ready Academy.
