Follett Software Launches Follett Academy – A New Learning Hub to Deepen Product Expertise and Empower Educators

Secure, flexible courses designed to maximize the value of your Follett solutions—with real-time tracking, expert instruction, and anytime access

GLOBAL, April 22, 2025 — Follett Software, a leading provider of K-12 software and services, is proud to announce the launch of Follett Academy, a new powerful learning platform created to help educators and administrators get more out of the solutions they already use every day.

Follett Academy provides a centralized, secure and intuitive platform for schools and districts to access on-demand learning, live instructor-led training and in-depth professional development. Courses will be available for Follett Destiny® Resource Manager, Destiny Library Manager, and Destiny Discover—offering deep dives into the features that matter most for your role.

“Follett Software has always been committed to supporting educators and administrators with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed,” said Monica Morrell, Chief Customer Officer. “With the launch of Follett Academy, we make it easier for educators to grow their confidence with the tools they already use. We’ve created a more flexible, guided learning experience so school teams can focus less on troubleshooting and more on supporting students.”

With Follett Academy, educators and administrators gain access to:

Follett Destiny Deep Dive Bundles – 12-month subscriptions offering in-depth, expert-led training.

Self-Paced Online Courses – Interactive, flexible learning that fits busy schedules.

Instructor-Led Public Courses – Virtual sessions taught by experienced instructors.

Live Instructor-Led Training – Real-time guidance from a community of experts and educators.

For those looking for a more in-depth, structured training experience, Follett Institutes offer expert-led courses focused on Destiny Library Manager. Four online self-paced courses are currently available, helping library staff and administrators fully leverage their library management system.

“Follett Academy reflects our commitment to practical, real-world support for educators,” said Chris Porter, CEO of Follett Software. “It’s about helping every user—from first-time librarians to experienced district staff—get the most out of their Follett tools, faster.”

Coming later this spring, registration will open for Destiny Pathways, a new, unique track of courses where educators can now gain role-specific certifications that recognize professional growth and mastery in using Destiny tools to support learning and library management.

Follett Academy is live and ready to empower educators with convenient, high-quality training. For more information and to register, visit Follett Academy.
