Who is it for?
Choose Training You Training You if you want a large library of solved cases to watch, or if you are also preparing finance interviews.
Choose FrameLab if you want to actively practice consulting, solve the cases yourself and rehearse the oral part with an AI, rather than watching walkthroughs.
In brief
Training You is an excellent content library, especially if you also target finance. But watching a solved case is not practicing. FrameLab is built for active practice: you solve, you compute, you go oral with an AI, and you do it again. The two are complementary, but it is active repetition that turns preparation into reflex.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between FrameLab and Training You?
Training You is a library of video courses and solved cases, covering consulting and finance. FrameLab is an active practice platform, focused on consulting, where you solve cases yourself and rehearse the oral part with an AI interviewer. One is watched, the other is practiced.
Does Training You cover finance as well as consulting?
Yes, Training You also prepares for finance interviews (M&A, corporate finance, capital markets), in addition to consulting. FrameLab is focused on strategy consulting. If you target consulting only, that focus translates into deeper practice on cases and the oral part.
Is it better to watch solved cases or solve them yourself?
Watching walkthroughs helps understand methods, but interview performance comes from active practice. It is by solving cases yourself, out loud and under time pressure, that structure becomes a reflex. FrameLab is built around this active practice.
