About CourseCareers

Do you want to leave your mark on the world? 

The college system has become corrupt, tricking millions of people into debt by selling false promises. We've gone to war with the system and are on the front line fighting back. 

No more will students be forced into debt just to have access to a decent career that doesn't even utilize their education. We’re the modern way people start careers. We help everyone ranging from 18-year-olds using our program as a college alternative to people switching careers later in life.

Within 10 years, we will bankrupt nearly every college in the US, saving millions from debt. More importantly, we're unlocking the world's potential and changing the pace of human progress.

Join us and be a part of history!
