Our story
Why Global Academy exists
The Global Academy, operated by Nurture, is a new model for global education. It combines state-of-the-art facilities, best-in-class technology, and global student recruitment, delivered in partnership with world-class universities, leading local institutions, and industry partners.
We bring a world-class university experience within reach, with study in Bangkok, all teaching and assessment in English, and routes to partner universities overseas.
