Our mission

Making verification accessible to all

B-Empire Academy is the training centre of B-Empire Magazine. We are launching it with one conviction: the best defence against disinformation is a public that knows how to verify.

What we offer

  • Free courses, short and practical, built around the methods used in newsrooms and by fact-checkers.
  • A quiz in every lesson and a final exam: the certificate has to be earned.
  • Verifiable certificates: unique number, QR code and a public verification page.

Our principles

  • Neutrality. We teach methods, not opinions. Verification applies to every source, whatever its side.
  • Sources cited. The tools and studies mentioned in our courses are public and verifiable.
  • Transparency. A B-Empire Academy certificate confirms the completion of an online course. It is not a state-recognised degree or a professional accreditation.
