Are these courses more focused on Analyst-level or Associate-level interviews / recruiting?

Both levels are addressed in the Investment Banking Interview Guide and Investment Banking Networking Toolkit.
The financial modeling work you do is the same, so we do not treat these two levels separately within the modeling courses.

What if I'm above the Associate level? Should I still sign up for your courses?

The Interview Guide and Networking Toolkit will be less relevant if you're at the Vice President / Director / Managing Director level, or if you're making a career change into finance at a senior level (e.g., you were a Partner at a law firm and now you are moving into private equity or investment banking).
You may still find some useful bits in those courses, but the focus is on junior-level roles within the industry.
The financial modeling courses, however, may be useful regardless of your level. MD-level and other senior bankers have signed up for the courses before and gotten something out of them.
For example, perhaps you are working on a deal in an industry sector you're unfamiliar with and you need to get up to speed rapidly - or you need to review work submitted by a junior employee and see if his analysis is correct.

What are the prerequisites for your courses?

There are no prerequisites for the IB Interview Guide, Networking Toolkit, PowerPoint Pro, or Excel & Fundamentals courses because we teach you everything from the ground up in those.
For the Advanced Financial Modeling course and industry-specific courses (Real Estate & REITs, Oil & Gas, Banks & Financial Institutions), you must have already completed the Excel & Fundamentals course or you must have equivalent knowledge gained via work experience or other training.
We move very quickly in all those courses. We also assume that you already know how to use Excel and that you understand accounting, valuation, and transaction modeling. So please do NOT sign up unless you are already comfortable with all those concepts.
