What is Academy Unlimited?

Academy Unlimited is a virtual learning environment built into Command Cloud, the officer experience platform (OXP) your agency already runs. Self-paced video courses. Taught by the Guardians who built the platform.

Your on-site training from Guardians stays exactly as it is. Academy Unlimited is what happens after they leave.

Modern-Day Corrections Has a Problem.

Turnover is the baseline.

Almost half of corrections agencies nationwide lose 20% to 30% of their officers every year.

Learning is the No. 1 lever.

88% of organizations say they're concerned about retention, and learning ranks as the No. 1 strategy for keeping people.

Knowing isn't proving.

Knowing your team is trained isn't the same as proving it. When a case turns on documentation, someone will ask who was taught what, and when.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Academy Unlimited moves your staff from Command Cloud users to masters.

Why Pay for Academy Unlimited If We’re Already on Command Cloud?

Because your in-person training is an event, and turnover never stops.

The Warrior you hire in November was not in the room in March. Without Academy Unlimited, she still gets trained. It just falls to your best sergeant, off the floor, teaching from memory, one deputy at a time.

That can cost you three ways:

1) Inconsistent documentation an attorney can build a case around
2) Your most expensive labor burned on instruction
3) A curriculum that retires when your internal trainer does.

Repetition on demand gets your officers from familiar to fluent in a matter of hours.

How Does Academy Unlimited Compare to a Traditional LMS?

Academy Unlimited is not a general corrections learning management system. It teaches Command Cloud.

It does not cover DOC or POST compliance curriculum, PREA certification, use-of-force, or defensive tactics. Keep your existing provider for those. Academy Unlimited covers the platform your officers touch on every shift.

The table below compares what Academy Unlimited covers against what a general corrections training platform covers.

Prove Who Has Mastered What

Certified Learning Paths and admin reporting. One earns the proof, the other exports it.

For supervisors and administrators, reporting shows learning activity for any member of your team: courses completed, assessments passed, Certified Learning Paths earned. Export to PDF or CSV.

Section 1983 civil rights complaints are the most-litigated inmate claims in corrections, and ongoing training in best practices is what reduces them.

And in an audit or a deposition, you are not asserting that training was offered. You are showing that it was completed and assessed, officer by officer.

Certified Learning Paths

A Certified Learning Path is a structured sequence of courses and assessments. A Warrior completes the sequence, passes the assessments, and earns a certificate that can be downloaded or posted to a LinkedIn profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Academy Unlimited is online, self-paced training on Command Cloud. Almost 30 courses and counting, covering every product your Warriors touch: Mobile Command XR, Mission Command, Mobile Compliance Monitor, and system administration. One annual license covers unlimited users across your agency. Courses are taught by the Guardians who built the platform, most run under five minutes, and new content publishes every quarter. Access it from any device, on any shift.

No. Academy Unlimited teaches Command Cloud. It is not a general corrections curriculum. It does not cover DOC or POST compliance training, PREA certification, use-of-force, or defensive tactics, and it is not built to replace the provider you already use for those. What it does cover is the platform your officers work on every shift, in the depth required to work it well.

No. Keep your existing provider for compliance curriculum, PREA certification, and academy requirements. Academy Unlimited is product training. It teaches your Warriors how to document a cell check, run a headcount, log a supply pass, and read a Mission Command dashboard. The two work alongside each other. One keeps your agency compliant with training mandates. The other makes sure the platform recording your compliance is used correctly.

Because in-person training is an event, and turnover never stops. Your Command Cloud purchase includes on-site training from Guardians at your facility. Academy Unlimited is what happens after they leave: the deputy hired in November, the sergeant transferring from patrol, the officer working a new post. Without it, that training still happens. It just falls to your most experienced Warriors, off the floor, from memory, on overtime.

Academy Unlimited is an annual subscription billed on the anniversary of your go-live date. Pricing is tiered by average daily population and the edition of Command Cloud you run. Every tier is an unlimited-user agency license, so you are not buying seats and the price does not change when you hire. Tiers start at $995 for facilities up to 50 inmates. The full tier table is above.

Academy Unlimited tracks it and reports it. Video analytics distinguish a course watched partially from one watched to the end. Supervisors and administrators can view learning activity for any member of the team: courses completed, assessments passed, and Certified Learning Paths earned. Reports export to PDF or CSV. In an audit or a deposition, that is the difference between saying training was offered and showing it was completed.

Through Command Cloud, with the credentials your Warriors already have. Log into your agency's Command Cloud using your vanity URL and select Academy Unlimited from the left pane. You can also go directly to guardianrfid.com/academy/login. There is no second account to create and no second password to remember. Academy Unlimited is a cloud-native web application, so it works on any device with a browser.

A Certified Learning Path is a structured sequence of courses and assessments built around a specific set of Command Cloud skills. A Warrior completes the sequence, passes the assessments, and earns a certificate. Certificates can be downloaded or posted to a LinkedIn profile. For your agency, Certified Learning Paths turn training into documented proof of proficiency. For the Warrior, they turn a shift into a career path.

New video content publishes regularly. The catalog grows as Command Cloud grows, so when a product gains a capability, the course covering it follows. Your license does not change when the catalog does. Unlimited users, unlimited access to everything published, for the term of your subscription. There is no per-course charge and no additional fee when new content lands.
