The document discusses challenges facing business schools and potential solutions. It notes that business school professors have many responsibilities beyond teaching that limit their ability to keep course content current. Additionally, publisher content is often out of date and lacks real-world experience. The founder of Stukent then describes their company, which provides continuously updated digital courseware with industry expert videos and real-world projects, as a solution to these problems. Stukent now supports over 2000 schools in over 40 countries.
