"At Academy, you'll learn to code Blockchain infrastructure at an online university. Choose to learn through an online curriculum or at an intensive boot camp in a city near you. Academy is a SACS accredited and SCORM compliant school, designed to deliver a dynamic and real-world online learning experience. With Academy, you can change the world with Blockchain." (Website)
Main Positives
"The usage and development of Blockchains has exponentially increased over the last 5 years. The demand for developers is incredibly high, however the supply is very low. The lack of of an educational infrastructure for blockchain puts companies, founders, projects, and investors in the industry at risk. Academy is aiming to solve this problem by offering developers, executives and universities tailored options for blockchain education and connects graduates with companies in need" (Whitepaper). This is very can solve a prevalent current problem and play a part in the acceleration of the Cryptocurrency economy as a whole.
The company has won several prestigious awards (eg. Forbes Best Startup 2014).
Academy is an internationally recognised higher education institution. Over 275,000 students are enrolled and utilise their resources. Furthermore, they have delivered their teaching programs to many large multinationals such as Coca Cola, Wal-Mart, Marriott and others.
Main Negatives
The hard cap of $50M. is on the high side. Furthermore, it's not made very clear what they will use these funds for in the future.
It's not 100% clear what each team member's role within Academy is. This is judging from their Whitepaper and Website. Furthermore, the partners that do have LinkedIn none have Academy as a project they are advising or they are part of. This might be done for legal or strategic purpose, hence I am not implying they are not part of the ICO.
