Train a worker

The Library grounds any worker on demand; the Academy is how you make a body of knowledge part of one specific worker for good.

What you’ll do

1. Open a worker’s Academy from its profile.
2. Train it on the material you want it to own.
3. See the training reflected as always-on knowledge and a certification.

1. Find the Academy

Open a worker’s profile and look at the Journey card. It links to that worker’s stops in 🎓 Academy (training and latest certification) and 🧪 Testing (the rubric bench). The Academy is the worker’s own school — distinct from this learning site.

2. Train it

Run the worker through training on the material it should master for its role. Unlike RAG — which fetches Library items only when a task happens to match — trained knowledge becomes always-on for that worker: it carries the material into every task without needing to retrieve it first.

Three ways knowledge sticks

• Library + RAG — fetched when relevant, available to any scoped worker.
• Academy training — always-on, baked into this worker.
• Skills & expertise — items in the worker’s profile codex, folded into its prompt.

Different tools for different jobs; the Academy is for the knowledge a role should never be without.

3. Certification

A completed Academy track leaves a certification — a versioned badge marking what the worker has been trained on, surfaced on its profile. You can pair it with 🧪 Testing to bench the worker against a rubric and confirm the training took.

Train the role, not the task

Reserve Academy training for durable, role-defining knowledge (“our claims-handling policy”), and leave one-off facts to the Library. That keeps each worker focused and its certification meaningful.

Recap

The Academy turns a body of material into always-on knowledge for a single worker, certified and testable — going beyond on-demand RAG. Next: the knowledge a worker writes itself, by saving reusable procedures as it works.
