We invest in you, not the other way around with a curriculum that goes beyond the game to lead a positive shift in gaming culture.
Next Gen Streamer Academy runs online over six months. You’ll have a short live training every week and a curriculum portal open 24/7 to access past sessions and resources. Our training is built on four pillars:
You’ll learn what goes on behind the scenes to stay grounded as a competitive gamer: mindfulness and keeping your head under pressure, resilience and learning from mistakes, and the discipline behind developing your skill in the game.
You’ll develop your sense of self as an on-camera performer: how to be charismatic and engaging while still being authentic to who you are—ultimately creating a streaming style that people want to spend time with.
You’ll build an audience that looks after its people using our Systems of Care model and pro-social moderation principles to structure your Twitch, Discord or wherever else you plan to foster community.
You’ll become someone worth looking up to: how to carry influence with responsibility, what to know about the online harms boys face, and how to consistently role model positive masculinity in gaming culture.
