Stage:

"Entrepreneurship is booming, with more people starting businesses than ever before. At the same time, traditional education remains outdated and impractical. That’s why we created the first-ever hands-on MBA, where students build real businesses instead of just studying theory. Woolf’s global accreditation ensures that this innovative approach is recognized and valued, giving our students the credibility they need while they launch their ventures."

About

While most MBA programs rely on theory, Oneday takes a different approach. Students don’t just study entrepreneurship; they practice it. With one-on-one mentorship and hands-on experiments through the Oneday Launch Platform, students earn credits by building real companies. From product development to marketing and finance, every aspect of the curriculum is designed to turn students into founders.

The result? Graduates leave with more than just an MBA. They leave with a business, revenue, and the skills to succeed in the real world.

Problem

A Unique Program Without Global Recognition

Oneday redefines the MBA experience by allowing students to earn their degree through launching real businesses. However, without access to accreditation, the program lacked global credibility. Students wanted a recognized degree, andinvestors sought proof of legitimacy. To scale and reach more aspiring entrepreneurs, Oneday needed a way to offer a fully accredited MBA without compromising its unique, experience-driven approach.

Solution

An Accredited MBA Built for Entrepreneurs

Rather than spending years navigating traditional accreditation  routes, Oneday sponsored the creation of a Woolf college. By integrating Woolf’s Accreditation Management System (AMS), Oneday ensured that students could earn a globally recognized MBA while simultaneously building their businesses. This seamless solution gave Oneday’s program the credibility it needed to attract more students and investors.

More than just a stamp of approval, accreditation strengthened Oneday’s model. Students didn’t just gain business knowledge; they left with real companies, revenue, and an MBA that carried weight worldwide.

The Bigger Picture: Scaling Impact Beyond the MBA

Oneday’s partnership with Woolf didn’t just validate its MBA, it fueled long-term growth. With a globally recognized degree, the program became more attractive to students and investors, opening doors for expansion. Now, Oneday is building a bachelor’s degree program, furthering its mission to make entrepreneurial education accessible and impactful. Traditional education teaches business. Oneday builds businesses. And with Woolf, it’s doing both, while shaping the next generation of entrepreneurs.
