Run the equation
Cohort 01 · 20.10–27.11.2026 · Zürich + remote

Your company bought AI.
Your people are still white collar.

blankcollar.university is the execution wing of The Blank Collar — we turn employees, managers, and executives into workers who direct machines and own the verdict, and companies that run on the equation.

00 / The thesis

A philosophy without practice is decoration.

The mothership says what we believe. The university says here is the room, the date, and the price.

=+()
The equationRead: vision, plus data, times process over human experience, to the power of AI. Hover any term.

02 / For companies

Run the equation on the org.

Three engagements that stack: a day, a sprint, a cascade. We publish every price — most never do.

01 / Workshop

The Executive Workshop

One day. The equation, run on your company — your real P/HX map and a 90-day directive you walk out with.

02 / Sprint

The Equation Sprint

Eight weeks. Audit, heatmap, twelve-month roadmap, manager activation — the org rewired, not just briefed.

03 / Cascade

The Cascade

The whole building, one philosophy. How the engagements stack — literacy for all, certification for managers, direction for the executive, the sprint for the org.

03 / Why now

The tools arrived. The people didn’t move.

Every team has the licences. Almost none have changed how the work runs. The seat was bought; the role was never rewired.

Art. 4
Since February 2025 the EU AI Act requires AI literacy across every organisation that uses AI.
5×5
Five weeks, five variables. One role — from white collar to blank collar.
Dec 2026
Cohort 01 completes. Numbers appear here then — measured, not manufactured.
04 / Proof, honestly

We won’t manufacture a number.

The honest version of an outcomes page: an empty state with a date, not a borrowed statistic.

Outcomes · status

First cohort completes December 2026.

Numbers will appear here — measured, not manufactured. Until then, we publish the rubric, the prices, and the method instead.

  • What we measureThree numbers per engagement. Defined before we start.
  • What we publishPrices. The rubric. The register. The refusal list.
  • What we refuseA universal ROI figure. No one honest can give you one.
05 / Who it's for

Built for some. Not for everyone.

The restraint is the brand. We would rather route you to the right door than sell you the wrong one.

For
  • Employees and managers who already have the tools and want the role.
  • Executives who must direct an AI-shaped org, not just approve a rollout.
  • Companies meeting Article 4 — and wanting more than a compliance PDF.
Not for
  • Anyone shopping for a certificate to frame, not a behaviour to change.
  • Teams wanting a tool demo. The tool is not the transformation.
  • Buyers who need a seven-figure programme and an eighteen-month roadmap.

Direct, don’t do.

The mission was written before the school: turn every worker into a Blank Collar. The university is how.
