Optional assessment and recognition

Certificates & ranks

Bring your learning together through practical work, reviewed evidence, and a defined course of study.

Study freely within your membership. Choose recognition separately.

$34/month covers audit access to every published Academy course. An assessed program is an optional additional purchase with its own course bundle, assessment requirements and pacing. Lesson completion alone does not award a certificate or rank.

Approved assessment fees and registration status appear on each program. Programs awaiting fee or curriculum approval remain closed.

A non-accredited Cloud Forest school award based on reviewed evidence. It is not a degree, professional license or guarantee of employment. Martial rank requires the authorized examiner's approval.
