In 9 short months you'll learn every skill you need to have in order to turn any idea into a six-seven figure brand or business. Don't worry if you don't know how to monetize your ideas because that is what you'll learn here. Rather than taking tests you will build your brand during class in real time so that by the time you graduate you're already making consistent sales and hiring your first employees. If you believe traditional college is a waste of time and you know you don't want to work a 9-5 job then Divergent University is the perfect opportunity to learn a different way in a community of peers who think the same way. 

First 90 Days at Divergent University

Develop the clarity around your ideas to learn how to turn them into profitable brands and cultivate the confidence to become fully capable of making $100,000 or more as an entrepreneur. You'll receive weekly one on one coaching sessions from business leaders and seven personal development workshops per week across three different workbooks for high performance habits, divergent thinking, and emotional balance. By the end of these 90 days you'll be ready to start your business with the skills and community to support your launch. 

Second 90 Days at Divergent University

Build your business in class with over 70 business workshops led by business leaders who've personally made millions in their career as entrepreneurs. By the end of this trimester you'll have met with a dozen founders and CEOs to coach you in your business and you'll have executed over a hundred hours to start your brand, price your offers, generate leads, and close your first sales. You'll have a registered LLC by the end of these 90 days and will be making money in your business with proven strategies from three business workbooks. 

Last 90 Days at Divergent University

Hire your first employee and create scalable systems within your business with over 70 leadership development and financial freedom workshops. During these 90 days you will become fully equipped to become a full time entrepreneur and you'll write a graduation speech to share on stage in front of hundreds of people. By the time you graduate Divergent University you'll have a growing business with a toolkit to reach $1 million in revenue if you stay dedicated.
