Description
How do we keep Academies lean from an operational perspective?
How can we set Academies up to be mostly self-sufficient?
What is the rotation for program staff?
Are program teams embedded in the respective program or academy or are program teams for Academies embedded in the Academies org and work across Academies at an oversight level?
How do we develop educational content?
How do we recruit, train, and pay mentors?
 
Thoughts on NC Academy Team (based on jobs to be done)
An Academy offers multiple programs based on level of difficulty, focus area, etc. Each program has expert instructors and mentors with expertise in the field.

Mentors: Responsible for student guidance, feedback, and progress until graduation for a program in an Academy
