Y Combinator is Improving upon its Fall 2014 Stanford course , How to Start a Startup , with a larger scale online course called Startup School. Whether you swear by startup bibles like Both Sides of the Table or Zero to One , there’s no denying that Y Combinator , now having backed over 900 startups, has a tip or two to share about starting companies.
The ten week class is a composite of lectures, class office hours and group office hours. YC is targeting current startup founding teams with the class, but you can always just watch the lectures as an observer. Startup School will be recorded at Stanford and feature speakers who played major roles at companies like WhatsApp, Stripe, Reddit, Quora, Facebook and Twitch.
“You can teach 30 percent of what you need to know to start a company in lectures, but the other 70 percent you need to actually start a startup,” Sam Altman, President of the Y Combinator Group told TechCrunch.
