2027 intake · programme terms
Terms for the work ahead.
These terms explain how a place in the 2027 Bridge-Maker Academy works before you enrol.
1. Acceptance and a place
- An enquiry and an Academy interview do not guarantee a place.
- A place is offered only after the Academy interview confirms that the route is a fit.
- If the Academy is not the right route yet, we will refer you to a more suitable pathway, an individual programme, or the free community.
- Your place is secured when you accept the offer and complete the agreed payment arrangement.
2. What the Academy includes
- The 2027 Academy runs over 12 months and includes five core programmes, completed once for 15 in-person days in Kuala Lumpur. Each core programme runs from 9am to 5pm daily (Malaysia time, UTC+8). The MWS trainer licence is included in the Academy fee.
- You choose the available delivery window for each core programme. After completing a core programme once, you may attend any later 2027 delivery of that programme as a free refresher.
- Between in-person blocks, the Academy includes one two-hour Ask Me Anything session each month and online coaching and mentoring throughout the year. Each cohort has one senior mentor alongside Soo Hoo, with one-to-one support as needed and feedback within three business days. Monthly Carry Bag sessions are optional: your cohort helps crew a senior trainer’s room to learn how to train better.
- Learning resources may include simulations such as TheVoyage and TheCORE, and profiling tools such as DISC and TalentCompass, selected to support the work you are doing.
- Come ready to learn, unlearn and relearn.
3. Fees and payment
- Early entry is USD 4,498 or MYR 19,116.50 when you register by 31 December 2026 for one of the five available places. Standard entry is USD 5,328 or MYR 22,644.00 for accepted applicants after early entry closes, subject to place availability.
- Pay in USD or MYR at the fixed rate of USD 1 = MYR 4.25. Fees include tax and all card-instalment interest and processing charges.
- You may pay in full or choose credit-card instalments for a repayment period of up to 36 months.
- Choose from the plans available through your credit card. Approval, available repayment periods and payment dates depend on your card issuer’s terms. Confirm your chosen card arrangement before accepting your offer.
4. Cancellation
Cancellation requests are subject to approval. If approved, the full individual price of every programme you have attended is deducted when calculating any returnable balance.
- Send a cancellation request in writing to the Academy team. Submitting a request does not mean it has been approved.
- Attended programmes are charged at their full public individual prices at the time of enrolment, rather than a proportional share of the Academy package fee.
- The team will confirm the decision, the programmes and prices included in the calculation, payments received, and any outstanding or returnable balance in writing.
Example: cancellation after attending MWS only
If you paid the early-entry Academy fee of USD 4,498 in full, attended only MWS Licensed Trainer at its current individual price of USD 998, and your cancellation is approved, the calculation is USD 4,498 − USD 998 = USD 3,500.
This example assumes those prices applied at your enrolment. It shows the programme deduction, not an automatic refund approval. Your written calculation will use your payments and the full individual prices of the programmes you attended.
5. Professional practice
Trainers with their own established framework, brand, clients and training-provider relationships are served through Authority. Authority is a service to their existing practice, without admission or invitation into the team.
Abundant Impact is the training provider company working with trainers from junior level through to ELITE. Academy is a development pathway with potential entry into that team. Academy enrolment does not guarantee team membership, assignments or ELITE status. ELITE identifies exclusive team members who have demonstrated the quality of their training and delivery.
- The Academy is a guided professional-development route. It does not guarantee client work, income, awards, roster placement, or a particular career outcome.
- Members are expected to participate respectfully, protect confidential material shared in the cohort, and use feedback in good faith.
- Learning materials, simulations, profiling tools, software, and apps remain subject to their applicable usage terms and are provided only where relevant to the Academy work.
