iACADEMY Cebu offers diverse programs designed to equip students with the skills required by today’s dynamic industries. Its popular programs include Animation, Multimedia Arts and Design, Software Engineering, Game Development, and Real Estate Management. These fields are in high demand, and iACADEMY ensures that students receive top-tier education to prepare them for competitive careers. 

Mitch M. Andaya, Vice President for Academic Affairs and College Dean, highlights iACADEMY’s pioneering approach, “We were offering programs that were not available in traditional universities. In Makati, we were the first to offer a software engineering program, and now, in Cebu, we continue our mission of being a catalyst for innovative education.”

 iACADEMY Cebu takes pride in providing an unparalleled learning environment with high-tech laboratories that rival those of professional studios. The campus features cutting-edge amenities, including a Cintiq room, a lightbox room, a green room, multimedia and computer laboratories, and a modern student lounge. Animation students, for example, work with advanced drawing tablets similar to those used by professionals at Disney and Pixar. 

Additionally, each student has access to an EBSCO account, providing a wealth of over 250,000 e-books to support their learning.

One of iACADEMY’s defining strengths is its faculty. Unlike traditional institutions where professors primarily teach from textbooks, iACADEMY ensures that all instructors for professional subjects are active industry practitioners. This real-world expertise bridges the gap between academic learning and the practical demands of various industries. 

Andaya emphasizes, “We don’t want our faculty to teach just from textbooks. We want them to teach based on experience. Many employers say graduates from other schools do not meet industry requirements. We address this by bringing industry professionals into our classrooms.”

 Furthermore, iACADEMY goes beyond the standards set by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED), offering an additional 500 to 600 hours of training to ensure students exceed industry expectations.

 Students like Spyke Matthew Lim and Edwell John Cotejar, both in their second year of Software Engineering, attest to iACADEMY’s supportive learning environment. They praise the institution for its hands-on approach, flexible learning schedules, and the invaluable insights shared by their professors. 

With tuition fees ranging from PHP 70,000 to PHP 85,000 per term, iACADEMY Cebu provides an investment in quality education that translates into high employability and career success. 

As iACADEMY Cebu continues its upward trajectory, the institution remains committed to shaping future game changers—students who will redefine industries with their skills, creativity, and innovation. 

Now in its second year of operation, iACADEMY Cebu has grown to 235 students and 18 dedicated faculty members. The campus, currently housed on the 5th floor of Filinvest Cebu Cyber Tower 2, spans 1,500 square meters and can accommodate up to 500 students. The institution is poised for further expansion, with plans to add additional floors shortly to accommodate its rapid growth.
