About CAPTAIN AI ACADEMY
What Is CAPTAIN AI ACADEMY
CAPTAIN AI ACADEMY is the training business of IMPACT 360, a small Belgian company based in Walhain. It runs on a clear premise: most professionals don't need a machine learning course. They need to know what to do with ChatGPT on Monday morning. The founder, Stéphane Peeters, teaches under the name Captain IA and has spent years running two day workshops inside marketing, sales and finance teams.
The online half, sold as CAPTAIN IA ACADEMY+, is where most people meet the brand first. It packs more than 85 courses and roughly 4,500 slides into a membership hosted on Skool, so lessons, recordings and discussion sit in one feed. The catalog sticks to tools that turn up in ordinary office work: ChatGPT, Gemini, Midjourney, and Make for automation. New material lands several times a week, according to the company, which matters more than it sounds. Tool interfaces here change faster than any printed curriculum.
Two limits are worth knowing before you pay. Nearly everything is in French, so an English-only team gets little from the course library. The English versions of the marketing pages don't change that. And the audience is business users, not builders. Nobody teaches you to fine tune a model or ship an agent. You learn to brief a tool, structure a prompt, and hand a workflow to a colleague who's never touched one.
Getting Started
- Open captainai.ai and follow the signup link for the tier you want. Registration runs through Skool, so you create an account with an email address or a Google login.
- Start on the free tier for a few days if you're unsure. You get a slice of the library rather than the whole thing, which is enough to judge the teaching style.
- Work through the prompting foundation material first, then a course on the tool you already use at work. Skipping ahead costs you more time than it saves.
- Copy one prompt pack or workflow into a real task the same week. The templates are written to be edited, not admired.
- Post a question in the community when something breaks. Answers come from the instructor and from other members, usually within a day.

Key features
A catalog built around office tools
The library covers ChatGPT, Gemini, Midjourney and Make, plus methods for prompts and workflows. That's a narrower list than a general course marketplace, and it's deliberate. Every course points at software your company already pays for, so what you learn on Tuesday is usable on Wednesday.
New lessons several times a week
Content is added on a rolling basis, with a strategic briefing on what changed in the AI market and how it affects everyday use. For a subscription that costs less than a lunch, the update pace is the main reason to stay past month one. Interfaces move; a course recorded in 2023 is already a history lesson.
Prompt and workflow packs you can copy
Members get reusable assets: prompt libraries, checklists, and Make scenarios for prospecting, content production and reporting. The design assumption is that you'll paste one into your own work and adjust the wording. That's a faster route to a result than rebuilding a prompt from a blank page.
A private community with the instructor in it
The platform runs on Skool, which puts the classroom and the discussion in the same place. Members ask questions, post what worked, and get answers from the instructor and from peers. For solo consultants, this is the closest thing to having a colleague to check an idea with.
A free tier that isn't a demo
The free plan is permanent and gives access to a selection of courses and resources. It won't cover a full AI upskilling program, but it lets you test the format, the language and the teaching approach without a card. Most paid platforms hide everything behind a trial, so this is a real difference.
Monthly Premium and annual VIP pricing
Premium costs €29 a month with no commitment and cancels in one click. VIP costs €290 a year, which works out to two months free, and adds advanced content plus a higher level of direct support. The monthly plan suits people testing the waters. The annual plan suits anyone who already knows they'll use it weekly.
In-company workshops and consulting behind the platform
The subscription is the entry point to a training company, not the whole business. IMPACT 360 also runs on site workshops for teams and advises companies on AI adoption, including GDPR and EU AI Act questions. Companies that want a room full of people trained usually start there, then keep the subscription for follow up.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Practical orientation. Courses start from a task you already have, not from how a model works under the hood.
- Low entry price. €29 a month with no commitment is a small bet compared with a two day corporate workshop.
- French language depth. Detailed AI courses for professionals in French are scarce, and this one is written for that audience rather than translated into it.
- Frequent updates. Weekly additions keep the material close to what the tools actually look like now.
- Direct contact with a working consultant. Questions get answered by someone who sells AI projects, not by a support queue.
Cons
- French only in practice. The interface has English pages, the course library doesn't, so international teams get limited value.
- Basic team administration. There's no seat management, single sign on or usage reporting, which means enrolling 40 people is a manual job for someone in HR.
- One voice throughout. The teaching reflects a single consultant's method and examples, so you won't get competing viewpoints on the same topic.
- Thin for technical builders. No coverage of model APIs, fine tuning or agent architecture, which makes it a poor fit for developers.
Frequently asked questions
There are three levels. Free is permanent and limited. Premium is €29 a month with no commitment, cancelled in one click. VIP is €290 a year, which the company frames as two months free, and includes advanced content and closer support.
