We are VERY, VERY, VERY excited to unveil the latest evolution of the Academy of Entrepreneurs Advanced Diploma. We have redesigned our curriculum around a simple question: If we were building an Advanced Diploma today for the CEOs, entrepreneurs, innovators and leaders of tomorrow, what would they actually need to learn? The answer isn't more theory. The world is changing too quickly. Artificial intelligence is transforming almost every profession. Businesses are becoming le

One of the most exciting opportunities we are building into our student pathway is the chance for young people to experience the world of work years before they have to choose a university degree or career. Through the Academy of Entrepreneurs' partnership ecosystem, students will have access to international experiences at Nuanu Creative City in Indonesia, a living laboratory where entrepreneurship, sustainability, technology, education, hospitality, wellness, media, archite

We are incredibly excited to officially welcome the University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) as our newest education partner in the Philippines. This partnership is particularly special to us.

We recently delivered our Greenpreneurship Hackathon Masterclass in Cagayan de Oro, bringing together 196 students for two full days of learning, building, experimenting and pitching. And when we say full days, we mean FULL days. There were no long lectures and very little sitting around listening. Every module had a purpose. Every activity had an outcome. Every student had to build. It Started With One Big Question: What Is Your Life Purpose? Before asking students to create

CAGAYAN DE ORO, PHILIPPINES - 196 students spent two days learning how entrepreneurship and artificial intelligence can help them turn problems in their communities into potential businesses and real-world solutions through the Academy of Entrepreneurs GreenPreneurship program.

One of the questions parents ask me most often is: "Will my child be okay when they arrive in Australia?" It's a question that goes far beyond university. Parents wonder whether their child will settle in, make friends, find work, build confidence and feel supported while living overseas. That's why Marcus' story means so much to me. A Fantastic Start Before He Even Landed Marcus completed the Academy of Entrepreneurs Diploma before applying to university. Through the Diploma

Every parent wants the same thing. We want our children to choose a career they'll genuinely enjoy, thrive at university, and build a successful future doing something they love. But here's the challenge. Many students are asked to choose a university degree before they've had the opportunity to discover what they're truly passionate about. It's no surprise that thousands of students change degrees every year, costing families significant time, money, and unnecessary stress.

We all love watching the reels and photos of our students exploring Sydney, attending inspiring masterclasses, meeting successful entrepreneurs, and visiting Australia's most iconic landmarks. We see the smiles, the adventures, and the unforgettable moments. But what really happens behind the scenes? What social media doesn't

Alphonsus first joined the Academy of Entrepreneurs Study Tour while still at High School at Southridge. Through AE, he built confidence, leadership skills and an entrepreneurial mindset before starting university. He then completed the AE University Pathway Diploma and was accepted directly into UTS with six months of university credit and a 30% scholarship. By avoiding the traditional UTS College pathway, receiving advanced standing and securing the scholarship, his family

Innovation often begins with a simple question: what if something we usually throw away could become something valuable? That is exactly the spirit behind the inspiring innovation from Universitas Brawijaya, where a lecturer from the Faculty of Agricultural Technology, Dr. Rosalina Ariesta Laeliocattleya, S.Si., M.Si., successfully developed Hi-To-Go Sun Protector, a children’s sunscreen made with corn silk extract as a natural active ingredient. What makes this innovation r

The Academy of Entrepreneurs is excited to share another meaningful milestone in expanding global opportunities for our students.

On 23 May, the Academy of Entrepreneurs had the honour of being invited to take part in the Lomba Debat Indonesia tingkat Kabupaten Gowa, a regional-level debate competition that brought together some of the most promising young speakers from across the region. Representing the Academy of Entrepreneurs, Gurpreet Kaur, also known as Sonia, was invited to serve as a judge for the English debate category. It was a meaningful opportunity not only to witness the students’ communic

At Academy of Entrepreneurs, we often say something that sits deeply in our hearts: The real impact of education is not on graduation day. It is in the months and years after completion, when students begin taking action, building confidence, creating solutions, changing communities, and stepping into leadership. That is why reading a recent post from Mark Anthony Dasco made us incredibly emotional. Six months after completing our BossYourFuture GreenPreneurship Program with

What happens when loan officers stop thinking like processors and start acting like advisors? In the recent Sustainable MSME Finance & Smart Lending program, that question was put to the test. The results point to something more significant than a successful training – they signal a shift in how financial institutions can operate, make decisions, and ultimately support the growth of sustainable enterprises. This was not a program designed to “add knowledge.” It was design

For the past few months, the Academy of Entrepreneurs has been building meaningful connections across Indonesia, exploring partnerships with schools, universities, communities, and government institutions that share the same belief: education should prepare young people not only for the classroom, but for the world beyond it. Among the many places AE has had the privilege to connect with, Makassar has become a very special city in this journey. From school visits and warm con

What We Learned from the Sustainable MSME Finance & Smart Lending Program at Dungganon Bank Post-Project Reflection | Negros Women for Tomorrow Foundation | Dungganon Bank At the Academy of Entrepreneurs (AE), learning does not stop in the classroom. We teach through hackathons, global study tours, real-world projects—and increasingly, inside financial institutions where impact is immediate and measurable. Our work with the Negros Women for Tomorrow Foundation’s Dungganon Ba

For generations, entrepreneurship followed a familiar path: get funding, build fast, scale bigger. Gen Z looked at that playbook and decided to rewrite it. Today’s young entrepreneurs aren’t just building businesses, they’re building purpose , impact , and communities . And they’re doing it in ways the world hasn’t seen before. “Your idea doesn’t need to be perfect. It needs to be started.” #BossYourFuture Purpose Before Profit (and That’s Not a Weakness) Gen Z doesn’t ask “
