What is Alpine Academy?
Alpine Academy is an enablement and learning program for companies changing how they work as they become AI-native.Every session is practical: hands-on working time with the AI tools your team already uses.No slides, no lectures.
Who’s behind it.
Alpine Academy was built by Andrew Phillips, founder of Alpine Systems, from the path he took himself.After twenty years building revenue systems in real estate finance and data, he brought AI into his own research, analysis and drafting in 2023, and by 2024 was building the tools he used to request.The classes follow the same climb.
