Founders working together on a business plan

The journey

How it works

Learn → Build → Execute → Prove → Review → V-Gate. Prep School turns business knowledge into documented action.

Learn and understand

Each lesson teaches one business idea in plain language with an example. When you finish, you answer a few short reflection questions — what you learned, what you will apply, what confused you. These are not graded; they help you and your reviewer see your thinking.

Mission and CEO Diary

The lesson then gives you a mission: a specific task to do in your own business. As you work, the CEO Diary asks what you planned, what you actually did, which tools you used, what went wrong and what you will do tomorrow — building a real record of how you operate.

Submit proof

When the mission is done, you submit proof: a written summary of what you did and what it shows, plus links and files. It then shows as "waiting on reviewer" — that is normal and never counts as falling behind. Submitting is not the same as being approved.

Human review and V-Gate

A reviewer reads your proof and either approves it, asks you to correct it, puts it on hold, redirects you, or asks for missing information — always with a note. At the end of a phase you take one graded quiz (70% needed), then request a V-Gate. A person makes that final call; passing the quiz alone does not unlock the next phase.
