Scott Galloway was saying Apple should take it's war chest and disrupt the educational system. Start an Apple University where the skills required for tomorrows jobs can be acquired. Would be great if you could get Amazon, MS, Apple, facebook, etc on board to start the revolution in education.
Will My Trump University credits transfer to this one?
Some people dont know Woz spent some years as an elementary school math teacher after leaving his full time Apple job. So he as insight as a teacher.
Although it would be unfortunate if this was the case, this paragraph from the about page ( https://woz-u.com/about/ ) leads me to think that this is just using Steve Wozniak's name for branding: Inspired by Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Computer, we specialize in technology and career-based programs designed to get people into the workforce quickly and affordably...Led by higher education experts, Exeter Educat…

You mean, like Facebook University? https://www.facebook.com/careers/university/fbu Frankly, I have to say I'm skeptical. I don't see what makes them suitable or incentivized to create a real school, rather than a pipeline into their businesses.
