What Is Leadership Academy?

Leadership Academy is a 10 month journey for young adults ages 18–30, designed to shape leaders who know who they are and why they’re called. Meeting two days a week on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, this isn’t just a course — it’s a season of intentional growth.

 

Founded in 2009 in the United Kingdom, Leadership Academy was created to raise up the next generation of leaders. Since then, graduates have gone on to plant churches and lead movements across the world, carrying what they learned far beyond the classroom.

​

While you’ll grow in your understanding of the Bible and the Church, Leadership Academy goes deeper. It’s about discovering who God has called you to be — strengthening your character, sharpening your leadership, and equipping you to live with purpose, conviction, and faith wherever you’re sent.

“I came hungry — I left equipped.”

young adult women who has done academy
I came into Academy with a calling and a passion for the local church, hungry for leaders to help fan that desire into flame. That’s exactly what Academy did. My leaders shared practical wisdom on building the church and gave me the tools to ignite a deeper vision for caring for God’s people. Even after walking with God for over 25 years, I discovered there was still so much more to learn about who He is and His heart for me. Taking a year to pursue God and grow alongside others was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
