Recode Decode: Is 'Uber meets Harvard' the future of learning?

GLG President and CEO Alexander Saint-Amand talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about running a learning platform for investors and business professionals.

He explains why other attempts to revolutionize learning online have fizzled out and how GLG is able to offer "millions of courses" without breaking the bank. Learn more about your ad choices.
