Are you ready to be a Game Changer?

Buckle up as a top tech and design school from Makati just unveiled its campus at the heart of Cebu IT Park!

iACADEMY, a college in Makati established in 2002 expands in Cebu. They are known for their strong industry partnership that delivers 96% job placement rate and specialized programs such as Software Engineering, Game Development, Animation, and Multimedia Arts. During yesterday’s media huddle, we learned that they offer a different approach to education, one that is magnified and focused to the needs of the top industries today and make learning cool and fun.

“We’ve started the inevitable. To expand is the only way to bring non-traditional, specialized education closer to every aspiring tech and creative, and we couldn’t think of a better place for the first campus outside Makati but Cebu – it is rapidly progressing and we join them in their pursuit to make it the next tech and creative hub,” said Raquel Perez Wong, COO of iACADEMY.

“We have grown exponentially from the mere 1 floor in Ayala Ave building to the 11-floor iACADEMY Plaza building, and now to our very own iACADEMY Nexus Campus that houses 2,500 students or as what we call them, Game Changers. This is the kind of success that we intend to bring to Cebu,” she added.

“I am thrilled to share the programs that we have prepared for our Cebu campus and to be working with industry professionals who are willing to share their time and talent as professors to mold future Game Changers,” said Mitch Andaya, Vice President for Academic Affairs for Cebu Campus.

iACADEMY is known for its industry-aligned curriculum and professors who are rockstars in their own chosen fields. Some of their notable alumni are Mikey Sevilla, Joshua Villena, Emman Rinoza.
