We are an eclectic team of creative minds and visionary dreamers located in Melbourne, who believe that teachers and traditional classes are insufficient to navigate today’s world.
Visionaries with focus on you
Our vision is to give students the skills, mindset and knowledge they will need to build their confidence, adapt, succeed and stay relevant in this dynamic and competitive global market.
Relevancy & interconnectedness
In educating future leaders, it’s our responsibility to provide quality programs that show that success lies beyond profitability, but in making a positive impact on the environment and society. All of our courses take this principle into consideration in both development and execution.

Meet the founder
I have never been an ideal student. I quit school at a really young age, and I realised through my journey that connecting with people, understanding emotions and developing the right skills are what bring success.
I wanted to bring that vision to Insight Academy Hub, and with an amazing team of professional and purpose-driven people we strive to provide our students with real-world experiences.
The theory you learn today isn’t relevant tomorrow. But at Insight we help you develop the mindset and skills that drive you to success and stay relevant in any situation.
Insight Academy is a safe space to test and validate your ideas, a place to thrive and a home for everyone who wants to share their experience with us.

Our Social
Commitment
At Insight Academy, we believe in supporting communities in the best way that we can. From within our own borders and beyond, here are some initiatives we’ve had the fortune to be involved in.
WeHike
Insight Academy, in partnership with Hike Tribe, launched an initiative to improve the well-being of international students impacted by COVID-19 by reconnecting them with nature and the community. This was achieved through conducting group hikes across regional Victoria. These events were immediately booked out by enthusiastic students. WeHike was supported by Study Melbourne and the Victorian State Government.
LGBTQIA+ ENTREPRENEURS
In a partnership with Small Business Victoria, Insight Academy created and conducted a seven-part event series focused on promoting and supporting LGBTQIA+ people in business, including networking events, guest speakers and workshops. Through highlighting LGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs and their stories, we aimed to empower LGBTQIA+ persons and provide them with the skills and connections to pursue their careers.
Food Next Door
Food Next Door is a co-operative organisation that matches under-utilised farmland with landless farmers to support small-scale regenerative farming, growing diverse crops & engaging people from diverse backgrounds to supply food to local households. Insight Academy collaborated with the co-op by giving full scholarships to two of the members of their community to support the growth of their business.
Project GEN Z
Thanks to Project Gen Z our Insight Academy team travelled to Cambodia to participate in workshops with other successful entrepreneurs to raise funds & teach entrepreneurial skills to students from Sunrise Cambodia, an orphanage run by Geraldine Cox. Insight Academy also gave a full scholarship to one of the students who nowadays continues her business studies at our Melbourne Campus.
