NextGenU.org describes itself as "the world's first portal where anyone, anywhere in the world can access university and graduate-level courses for interest or for credit through recognized accredited institutions and organizations. The credit (or interest) is the important word in this new site.

At this point, they concentrate the courses, certificates, residencies primarily in the health sciences.

They work in collaboration with experts and professional organizations for quality assurance and endorsement, and use cutting-edge educational innovations, including computer-based learning resources, local and web-based peer-to-peer interaction, and mentoring experiences.

NextGenU.org is your portal to the world’s first free, accredited, higher education. Starting with a focus in the health sciences, NextGenU.org partners with leading universities, professional societies, and government organizations like the U.S. CDC, Grand Challenges Canada, and the World Health Organization. NextGenU.org’s accredited partners give learners credit for this training (or institutions can adopt them and use them with their students), all for the first time ever for free (and without advertisements). All our courses are competency-based, and include a global peer community of practice, and local skills-oriented mentorships. Founded in 2001, we launched our first full course (Emergency Medicine) in March 2012, and have students registered in over 80 countries: initial data show that NextGenU’s training performs comparably to traditional American medical schooling.
