The collaboration is represented as "an important step in Harvard Business School's broader diversity and inclusion initiatives." I see this as marketing - what the collaboration really means is that University of the People students are now able to enroll in Harvard's Credential of Readiness (CORe), a three-course primer in the fundamentals of business ($US 2,250 each exclusive of discounts).
