Admissions are open for the October intake
Big futures are built one class at a time
Mentora Academy runs evening and weekend courses in tech, design, business and languages. Small rooms, patient teachers, and skills you can use at work the very next week.
Why study with Mentora
A school that respects your time
We built every part of the academy around one idea. Adults learn best in small rooms, with real teachers, on schedules that survive a busy week.
Small classes, always
We cap every room at eighteen students. Your instructor learns your name in week one and actually notices when you fall behind.
Teachers who still practice
Every instructor keeps one foot in the industry they teach. What you review in class on Thursday comes from work shipped that same month.
Schedules that bend
Pick evening, weekend or live online. Miss a session and the recording, notes and homework land in your inbox the same night.
Certificates that mean something
Employers in our partner network know a Mentora certificate is earned, not printed. Assessment is project based and honest.

About Mentora
A school built for working adults, run by working adults
Mentora started in 2013 in a single rented room above a bakery, with two teachers and eleven students who wanted to change careers without quitting their jobs. We kept the format that worked. Small rooms, evening hours, and instructors who still practice what they teach.
- Every room capped at eighteen students
- Live online option with recordings for every session
- Project based assessment, no trick exams
- Flexible payment plans on every course

Student stories
What our students say
I signed up for the design course while working retail and raising two kids. The weekend track saved me. Eight months later I got hired, portfolio and all. Nobody in that building let me give up on myself.
