Another greate option for training people during growth are the Harrison Metal classes, starting with General Management. If you are a first time manager (or even a seasoned one!) in a growing startup, its an invaluable crash course in business.
Stop ... startup idea is dead. We all know tech now. Its just a small business on the internet. There is no more 10x stuff. You build an app, market and sell its just like old business but with an internet focus.
Its time to mature, we had our days of "changing the world". Now just learn your craft, make a profit and sell.
Startup grad school? Get an mba and get a real education dont half ass it if you are serious.
Im not saying that this is a waste of time. Im saying there are more robust avenues and you graduation in business is making profit not just networking for a few months.
5 years ago this was a great opportunity. Today I would ask myself why are these guys not contacting me? Focus on you business/product not joining a club.All the info is out there.
