Academy is a detailed and extensive online beekeeping syllabus. Many thousands have accessed Academy and we’ve been honored to introduce many to beekeeping. Academy has two levels of access.

Free Access: Over 40 lessons are free and open to all. If you have an interest in beekeeping but not quite sure it’s for you, then these lessons will help you make your decision.

Colony Member Access: Colony is our low-cost, friendly community for hobbyist beekeepers. Along with many other benefits, Colony members have access to all the lessons, webinars and challenging tests in Academy.  If you are a beekeeper….this is the Academy for you!

Just join our Colony community and you will have immediate access to all lessons, webinars and tests in Academy. Learn more about Colony membership here.

Not at all! While it is certainly a wonderful way to learn beekeeping (as thousands of Colony members have done), we also have many experienced beekeepers in our Colony community. They report that Academy is a great way to brush up on their knowledge and, in fact, learn a few new things here and there!

Oh and by the way, less than 5% of members taking our tests pass all nine tests with a 100% score! So, yes, they are likely to challenge you!
