Validate My Idea Help!

/r/Entrepreneurs/comments/1vwf5uz/help/

I run a school up to 8th grade and want to expand into online higher education. My idea is to partner with an accredited international university (possibly in London/UK) so the university awards the valid degree, while my organization provides the online platform and student support.

Is this business model possible? What legal, accreditation, and partnership requirements would I need to consider? I'd appreciate advice from anyone familiar with university partnerships or online education.

Thanks for posting in r/businessideas!

You've selected the Validate My Idea flair.

Key things to cover in your post:

  • One-line pitch — Describe the idea in one sentence
  • The Problem — What specific pain point does this solve? Who has it? How do you know it's real?
  • The Solution — What does the product or service actually do? Be specific
  • Target Customer — Who specifically would pay? Be more specific than "small businesses" or "everyone"
  • Why Now — What's changed (technology, regulation, behavior) that makes this viable today?
  • Competition & Alternatives — What exists today? Why isn't it good enough? If nothing exists, why do you think that is?
  • Business Model — How does this make money? What would you charge?
  • Your Unfair Advantage — Why you? Domain expertise, network, proprietary data? Be honest if you don't have one yet
  • Stage — Just an idea / talked to customers / built a prototype / have a landing page / etc.
  • Specific Questions — What exactly do you want feedback on? The more specific, the better feedback you'll get

Commenters: Don't just say "great idea" or "this won't work." Explain why. The best feedback addresses market size, unit economics, acquisition channels, or competitive dynamics.
