FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the core focus of the VELOCITY program?

The core focus is on transforming subject matter experts (Educators, Trainers, Consultants)—your members—into founders of their own scalable EdTech brands. It is a Professional Development Program focused purely on business and technology strategy, not on institutional IP commercialization.

Who provides the educational content for the new venture?

The educator/Edupreneur must provide their own original content based on their existing expertise. VELOCITY provides the framework, tools, and mentorship to package, brand, and market that content effectively. The institution is not responsible for or involved in content development.

What is the commercial risk to our partnering institution?

There is zero commercial risk. The new EdTech brands are owned entirely by the Edupreneurs. The partnership's role is strictly limited to providing access to the professional development and training program, ensuring full compliance and separation from the institution's commercial interests.

How long is the program?

VELOCITY is a focused, 4-week Professional Development Program organized into four core modules. It is designed to be intensive and deliver a launch-ready business strategy upon completion.
