Local online education startup Apprennet wants to school you on startup law.

As part of a German massive open online course (MOOC) challenge, it’s pitching a startup law course for two audiences: aspiring lawyers and entrepreneurs.

Vote for Apprennet’s course here by May 23. Winners will get 25,000 Euros (more than $32,000) to implement the course.

Even if the idea does not win, Apprennet staff still plans on holding the course, said company spokeswoman Emily Foote. It’s using the competition as a marketing strategy, Foote said.

‘Advising Startups’ will be Apprennet’s third law MOOC. Its first course, on mergers and acquisitions, saw more than 200 students register within the first week of opening.

Apprennet now has four employees (and is looking for a developer) and is based out of Drexel’s ExCITe Center.
