HISTORY
Founded in 2015 on California's beautiful central coast, Mentorship Academy, affectionately known as MA, emerged with a mission to revolutionize the consulting world. Our central focus has been pioneering groundbreaking consulting and auditing services in Literacy and Mentorship Communication. Recognizing an impending paradigm shift in the learning landscape, we set out to bridge the gap between content and transformative infrastructure.

​

Our vision is anchored in the second wave of the digital revolution, poised to foster a more cohesive and equitable workforce, yielding greater satisfaction and efficiency. We remain committed to preserving the human touch in this technology-centric era, seamlessly integrating remote learning, distance training, and screen coaching. Through mentorship communication, we empower the next generation of learners and change agents, nurturing them into capable and compassionate leaders, regardless of their chosen mode of communication or platform.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

At Mentorship Academy, we believe that self-directed learning doesn't mean you're alone. Mentorship Communication forms the cornerstone of our approach, fostering formal partnerships that allow life skills and personal growth to flourish under the guidance of experienced mentors. We understand that digital literacy isn't common sense, and our mission is to reshape how we build relationships and utilize technology solutions, research and development (including artificial intelligence), and mentorship to achieve our goals.

 

We are dedicated to creating inclusive learning environments, particularly under the banner of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), where the unique needs of neurodivergent learners are acknowledged and catered to.
