Great thoughts. One of the big challenges with topic-based building-oriented programs is that it presumes people have already achieved a certain degree of self-awareness about their interest and directions.

There are plenty of those people and so I'm not suggesting this is a constraint on your project! A focused product like a MyMBA sounds great.

But a lot (maybe a majority) of people that follow a traditional educational path have never built anything. They have never, or rarely, pursued anything for the joy of it or cultivated a skill independently.

When you offer them freedom, they have a meltdown. (I led a small, builder-oriented college: in LatAm where I saw this first hand https://mpc.ufm.edu/)
