Navigating to Academy
To access Academy, you can visit the website directly at academy.brandwatch.com

Logging into Academy

Otherwise, you can click Sign In in the top, right-hand corner to enter your Brandwatch email address and log in:
Note:
Currently, it is not possible for Social Media Management users to log into Academy manually by clicking Sign In, unless the email address is also linked to a Consumer Intelligence account.
