About Us
Founded by a black man, we are black owned, independent education company that specializes in teaching modern high income skillsets/business models to black & brown people, and guiding them to leverage the classroom education into financial earnings that will change their lives, one student at a time. Our team, founded by Isaiah Riddick-Debnam, has real life expertise in all areas of coursework and majors, and have proven profitability in these spaces. Our vision is to educate and empower as many underserved groups as possible with good faith. We feel so many walls are put up against certain groups of people. So many locked doors. So much information intentionally gate kept. So many opportunities not given, and in result, so much hope is lost. We want to give these communities that feel they are undervalued, unappreciated, and left the opportunity to seek affordable education, and work alongside coaches that are invested in changing the narrative and reality for so many people. It's time to redefine education.
Frequently Asked Questions
"Are you guys a real school?"
Onyx Tech is an independent education company that provides courses to what we consider students. Our style of teaching, our process, and results differ from most traditional schooling or education platforms, which we consider a positive. We are not accredited, nor do we strive to fit the standard to receive accreditation. That means we would have to draw in-between the lines, and no one truly great has became great by doing that. So if you want standardized, traditional education, we understand and ultimately value traditional education. Our founder is an economics student at Virginia Tech! But if you want a financially feasible, self paced, modernized educational experience where you will learn about modernized business models, profitable 6-figure skillsets, and even get directly coached as you begin your journey to financial free, enroll in Onyx Tech!
"How long does it take to complete Major requirements at Onyx Tech?"
As mentioned throughout, Onyx Tech's courses are all self paced, so it truly depends on the student. Although we are pushing independent education, throughout our courses there are exams, assignments, and homework that must be completed as a requirement. There are no due dates particularly, but you must complete on pace with the syllabus. So, it can take students 2 months to complete the classroom portion of the program, and it also can take 2 years. It truly depends on the student and their work ethic and flexibility.
