World-class curriculum.
All-new learning way.

Challenge Based Learning, or CBL, is a framework created by Apple to leverage technology in meaningful ways and make learning relevant. 

At the Academy, this problem-solving framework shapes an entirely new kind of curriculum — reimagined each year to reflect the expertise of mentors and the needs of each Learner. You’ll be encouraged to ask bold questions, spark curiosity, and create experiences that matter to real users. Whether you’re exploring new fields or diving deeper into your own, you’ll develop the skills to identify problems — and solve the ones that matter most to you.

A world of pathways. Find the one that’s yours. At the Academy, learners from diverse backgrounds collaborate closely — each at their own stage, in their own way. Together, we design better Pathways where everyone’s potential has room to grow.

Sustainable Innovation. Build a strong foundation for your career through ongoing mentorship, and in-depth feedback from Apple’s pedagogy team and external specialists. Along the way, you’ll develop the wide-ranging skills needed to pursue lasting innovation.

Challenge, created by you. From ideation to development, design, planning, and marketing — learners are supported every step of the way to take on bold new challenges within the Apple ecosystem.

Framework

World-class curriculum.
All-new learning way.

Pathway is a personalized roadmap for growth — a journey where learners build expertise at their own pace. Rather than following the ‘right’ answers, learners discover their strengths and shape their journey through exploration and action. With curiosity and the courage to take on new challenges, anyone can become a learner and begin their own innovative pathway. The Academy designs its curriculum anew each year, reflecting learners’ evolving needs, mentors’ expertise, and the latest in technology trends.

Powered by Apple’s own educational framework — Challenge Based Learning. At the Academy, learners gain the knowledge they need, exactly when they need it, across disciplines and in alignment with their unique pathway. By skipping unnecessary steps and focusing on relevance and impact, CBL maximizes both the joy of learning and the efficiency of progress — delivering an experience optimized just for you.

Every solution begins with a better question.
And ends with what truly matters.

Challenge Based Learning (CBL), developed by Apple, focuses on solving real-world problems — empowering anyone to apply the right skills, in the right context, with purpose. At the Academy, learners take the lead. They define their own challenges, uncover insights, and validate ideas — sharpening their problem-solving skills every step of the way. Along the journey, they work with peers to address personal, local, and global issues — sharing experiences, exchanging knowledge, and growing together through action.

A powerful lineup of workshops.
It's your choice, your pace.

Every field. Every skill. All in your hands. Learners take charge of their growth — choosing the knowledge they need, when they need it. From iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and visionOS to AI/ML, App Store business and marketing, soft skills, and even startup and career readiness —a carefully curated lineup of on- and offline workshops, led by global and local experts, helps you learn deeply and grow confidently.
