Online university: Donald's new Trump card
New York:
Donald Trump has launched his latest venture: an online University that will carry his name. The Trump University will consist of online courses, CD-ROMs, consulting services and seminars.

The profit oriented university will not offer degrees or grades and courses will cost $300 and take one to two weeks to complete. "In today's hyper-competitive business climate, the need for the highest quality education has become more crucial than ever," Trump said yesterday at a news conference. "But people are looking beyond the traditional business education model, which involves hours in the classroom and relies primarily on book learning."

Students, who will be referred to as 'customers'- will be able to register for classes in marketing, real estate and entrepreneurship starting this week, with additional curriculum areas planned for the future.

The billionaire real-estate mogul said the project could develop into a brick-and-mortar school.
