Entity Academy curates and aggregates bootcamp-style online courses in data science, software development, fintech engineering and technology sales, pairing coursework with targeted mentoring and career coaching. The company does not build original e-learning content but tailors third-party courses (from providers such as Springboard, Lambda School and Columbia University) to its students. Entity emphasizes data-driven strategy and engagement, including a content arm, Entity Mag, which has more than 1.1 million followers across Instagram and Facebook. Typical tuition is about $15,000, and roughly 80% of students take financing to pay for courses. Since launching in 2016, about 400 students have completed the program, there are roughly 300 students currently enrolled, and the company is on track for 1,500 students next year. Mentorship has scaled to about 250 mentors (expected to double to 500), and completion rates have dipped since the shift from an in-person model that previously saw 96% completion and over 90% job outcomes. The company relocated its headquarters to Las Vegas when it relaunched as a virtual program in 2020 and continues to prioritize improving completion and job-placement outcomes. Entity Academy offers outcome-aligned, career-focused training programs for women, including its Writer's Collective Digital Marketing program and courses in data science and other skills. The company emphasizes a four-pillar methodology: real-world hard skills, soft skills and leadership training, high-touch mentorship, and job-placement assistance. It focuses on expanding access for women of all ages and aims to impact the gender pay gap by training, mentoring, and placing women in 21st-century careers. Entity Academy is extending its education-finance offerings through Income Share Agreements (ISAs) to remove upfront cost barriers. The company partnered with Leif to launch and manage the ISA program, leveraging Leif's ISA management platform and technology. Founded in 2016, Entity Academy highlights program efficacy and upward career mobility for its students.
