Our story
The seed for BKD Academy was planted long before its official founding in 2024. It sprouted from a deep-seated passion for teaching that took root within me back in 2015, when I first embarked on my entrepreneurial journey.
Even while navigating the demanding role of manager in a private company, I couldn't ignore the pull towards education. In 2016, I embraced a part-time lectureship in economics & marketing, eager to share my knowledge and inspire young minds.
This desire to empower others through knowledge grew into something more. By 2017, I was actively engaging with SME owners and young professionals, delivering private training and coaching programs. I relished the opportunity to witness their growth and transformation as they absorbed new skills and strategies.
Then came 2020, a year that tested the resilience of businesses worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic forced us to adapt, and I wholeheartedly embraced the shift to online learning. Webinars became my new stage, and I found innovative ways to connect with and support SME owners, often inviting expert trainers and speakers to enrich the experience.
Today, BKD Academy stands as a testament to that vision. We collaborate with diverse organizations, delivering both online and customized training courses designed to equip individuals and businesses with the tools they need to thrive. But beyond the curriculum and the certifications, BKD Academy is about igniting a spark of lifelong learning, empowering individuals to reach their full potential, and contributing to a more equitable and sustainable future.
