SA Academy
Architecture careers, elevated.
Join the SA Academy and connect with a dynamic group of like-minded architects. Gain access to live events, practical courses, coaching and free insights to elevate your architectural journey.
Why we started the Academy
A hub for architects to connect and learn.
Our architecture team has gained a wealth of insight through consulting work with diverse clients across many industries. Those experiences revealed that architects and heads of architecture face remarkably similar challenges, regardless of their sector.
That discovery prompted us to create the SA Academy, a place where emerging architects, experienced practitioners and heads of architecture can connect, share knowledge and learn the lessons that matter, especially those gained through challenging situations.
Too many architects do not get the training, mentoring and leadership support required to excel in their roles. We continuously develop courses to close that gap, so you can become an outstanding architect or lead an exceptional architecture team with confidence.

Courses
Mastering Solution Architecture series
Contrary to popular belief, the solution architecture role extends far beyond technical expertise. Years of industry experience provide the technical foundation, but exceptional architects who lead multi-million dollar projects wear many hats and master diverse non-technical skills.
Every course is developed by our architecture team from real-world experience delivering client outcomes. We have distilled our most valuable insight into practical learning so you can become an exceptional solution architect.
