Academy Studios & Schools

Where learning happens inside the Academy.

The Academy is organised into studios and schools — each anchored to a specific learning pathway, mentor persona, and certification target.

The Foundation Term comes before every studio, regardless of pathway.

Foundation Term — All Learners

Four compulsory seminars before your pathway begins.

These four seminars establish the shared language, doctrine, and judgement framework that underpins every pathway.

Pathway Studios & Schools

Six studios. One for each governed starting point.

Your ARIA Entry Interview recommends the studio that matches your current position. Each studio has a named mentor, a certification target, and a clear first-win recommendation.

Foundation

School of Human-Centred AI Foundations

The entry school for every Academy learner. Covers AI language, confidence, risk recognition, and the founding doctrine before implementation pressure is introduced. Compulsory for the Awareness Path and recommended as a foundation for all other paths.

Clarity

Clarity Before AI Reflection Studio

A question-led studio focused on problem definition, decision readiness, and human decision gates. Learners produce a clear yes/no/not-yet implementation judgement before any tool or vendor conversation begins.

Governance

Governance, Policy, and Trust School

Covers trust architecture, decision rights, accountability, and review design before implementation expands. The school for organisations that need governance-first adoption rather than tool-first adoption.

Worker Readiness

AI Worker Readiness and Governance Lab

Prepares learners to govern AI Workers responsibly: role design, boundaries, escalation rules, supervision, and trust architecture before any delegation begins. Not a build lab — a readiness and governance lab.

Foundation Workbooks

Four workbooks. One for each part of the founding text.

The Foundation Workbooks accompany the founding book — Down the AI Rabbit Hole. Each workbook corresponds to one section of the book and produces a reflective output for the Foundation Journal.
