Spirit of Entrepreneurship app launches

We at GoForth Institute were thrilled to join our development partners Robots and Pencils and Olds College to officially launch the Spirit of Entrepreneurship app this past Tuesday. Spirit of Entrepreneurship is the world’s first fully-accredited app-based course delivered through a video game experience.

Through the app, students of Olds College will learn about and experience small business as a career option, in a way that works for their needs and learning style. In fact, 78% of pilot students who completed the course indicated they would “seriously consider” an entrepreneurial path in the future.

The course is designed to take just 25 hours to complete, and offers the flexibility of complete mobility.

Thanks to Olds College and Robots and Pencils for taking the journey of innovation with us!
