Bridging Education and Career Success: Introducing the Foundations for Success - WGU Edition

As proud alumni of Western Governors University (WGU) and co-founders of GreenBox U, we're excited to announce a special edition of our Foundations for Success course tailored specifically for WGU graduates and current students.

Our Journey with WGU

Our journey with WGU has been a profound experience that shaped our careers and inspired us to create something unique for the WGU community. We completed our MBAs at WGU and learned the value of self-driven education. We had the privilege of being featured in a WGU article in February, where we shared our experiences as a couple who pursued our MBAs together. This feature highlighted how education can be a powerful tool in changing lives, not only individually but also as a couple. It was a proud moment for us, emphasizing the shared journey of achieving academic and professional success side by side.

A special thanks to Karen Rosenzweig for reaching out to feature us on WGU’s social media. Karen, you started us down this path several months ago, and we have since connected with some amazing WGU students, alumni, and employees as we developed this product. Thank you!

Inspiration for the WGU Edition of the 'Foundations' Course

Being featured by WGU was more than an honor; it was a catalyst for us to give back to the community that has given us so much. It inspired us to develop a version of our digital Foundations for Success course specifically for WGU students and graduates. Our experiences at WGU taught us the importance of personalized education, where every piece of knowledge and skill contributes to personal intellectual capital (PIC). This understanding led us to the creation of a course that focuses on leveraging educational PIC to achieve career success.

The WGU Edition of our course is designed to bridge the gap between academic achievements and real-world applications, equipping participants with the tools to excel in their careers.

The Development Process

In creating the WGU Edition, we had the privilege of working with current WGU students and alumni who provided invaluable feedback. Their insights and experiences were instrumental in shaping the course to meet the specific needs of the WGU community. The collaboration with these individuals was not only enriching but also reaffirmed our belief in the course's potential to make a meaningful impact.

One key takeaway from this collaboration was the realization that many graduates face challenges in translating their educational achievements into professional success. Our course addresses this by teaching students how to communicate their educational background effectively, apply it to real-world situations, and monetize their personal intellectual capital.
