CTO Academy Reviews 

Spending several thousand euros and a few months on an online training isn’t something one does lightly -- there are plenty of ways such a long journey could disappoint.
Nothing like that happened with CTO Academy.

Andrew, Jason, and the team have done a monumental job assembling a thorough, well-structured and up-to-date curriculum that truly covers everything a CTO needs to know. Many lectures (especially on legal and financial topics that most CTOs seldom dive into) -- gave me a much more complete view of what it means to be a senior technical leader. I absolutely loved the war stories from Gus!

The community around CTO Academy is also thriving and full of genuinely motivated people. I haven’t seen any random participants -- everyone is engaged, helpful, and eager to share. There’s a lively social side too, with great discussions, panels, and one-off lectures.

Overall, I’m a happy customer -- I wish all my investments turned out this successful and enjoyable. Well done, CTO Academy!

I've been fortunate enough to complete a number of training courses aimed at leadership, technology and business skills.
I wanted to study a course specifically for technology leaderships and either fill in gaps in my own knowledge or add to what I already knew.
CTO Academy offered a great product which ticks all of those boxes and is continually improving over time, regularly taken onboard feedback to ensure it maintains best in class status.
Thank you to all involved over the past year.

I have been in tech for almost 30 years and have multiple certifications done along the way, including MS, Cisco, AWS. This was certainly one of the better laid out programs I've done with lots of variety, learning, and structure. A shout out to Andrew and Jason for providing such an amazing and immersive program.

Great content which help havigates in CTO role and prevent many errors. Worth every penny!

Well planned curriculum with lectures from Industry experts.

Structure and content of the courses are just great.

A wonderful program tailored for working professionals in the IT field.
What sets it apart is its flexibility and the breadth of content, all delivered by seasoned experts who truly understand the complexities of our industry. I was able to immediately apply insights from the courses to real-world challenges I was facing in the business, which made the learning experience incredibly impactful. The cherry on top are the community sessions (which may be difficult to attend at times) that allow us to connect and interact with peers and experts.
I highly recommend this program to any IT leader looking to grow strategically and stay ahead in a rapidly evolving tech landscape.

The course covered all of the topics that are pertinent to becoming a great CTO. 'It's not about the tech' is a theme that ran through the entire thing. The lectures were great and the additional information is a gold mine of further reading which I'll be using to improve further as I go. Highly recommended!

CTO Academy provided me with the much needed knowledge and support to grow within my role. going through the digital MBA provided me with the perfect balance of time and structure to complete the course while not feeling burdened or pushed to quickly.

Knowing I had gaps in my knowledge, I decided to enrol in an MBA programme that closely aligned with my line of work. Although I have never considered myself particularly academic, I was eager to develop my skills and broaden my understanding.

The courses have been both enjoyable and insightful, providing many lightbulb moments that have deepened my understanding of my career and clarified the direction I need to take. The content is relevant, practical, and directly applicable to my professional life.

The lecturers are excellent, highly knowledgeable and engaging, and I’ve had the opportunity to meet some of them through meetings organised by CTO Academy, which has added a valuable personal connection to the learning experience.

Great course with lots of content. Team were very supportive too.

Would recommend to anyone looking to progress their career in the technology space

A thoughtfully designed and well-structured course.
The progression from one topic to the next feels natural and intuitive, offering a seamless learning experience. It provides a strong, holistic perspective that is essential for anyone transitioning into a senior role. I particularly appreciated how the course goes beyond the technical aspects to also cover foundational financial concepts—an often overlooked but critical area.

Overall, it’s an excellent investment of time and money.
Thank you to everyone involved for the effort and expertise that clearly went into creating this course.

Beautifully crafted course. Excellent flow from one topic to another. Gives a good holistic view one needs to have when moving into a senior role. Covers not only technical part but also touches upon the fundamental of finance which is very critical. In short worth every penny. Thank You for the effort Ladies and Gentlemen

A worthwhile investment in your future! The course is well put together and covers the ground a modern CTO needs to navigate as a business operator.

This was a very good experience. I really appreciated the concise and application information that was taught, a lot of which I was able to apply successfully to current project.

Level up your leadership journey. The DMBA program at CTO Academy transformed my approach to tech leadership. The curriculum is thoughtfully structured with passionate, industry-seasoned instructors who bring real-world insights to every module. I particularly appreciated the flexibility of accessing events both live and on-demand, making it perfect for balancing professional development with a busy schedule. If you're looking to elevate your leadership skills in the tech space, this program is worth the investment.

The digital MBA course with CTO Academy has been meticulously planned to maximise value for the students: From the breadth of knowledge and expertise of the lecturers, to the way the course is laid out - you can tell the team have thought really carefully about the student experience. Even down to getting the occasional nudge from the team when life gets in the way and the pace of learning drifts a bit. It is clear the founders really care that students get maximum bang for their buck.

The course content is regularly reviewed and updated, the (growing!) global professional community you get access to are incredibly supportive and generous with their time. If you want to deep-dive there are ample additional learning materials, over and above the 200+ video lectures you get. Not to mention the regular events including Expert Q&A's Peer to peer sessions and more.

I will refer back to this course regularly and going through the Digital MBA as a technical leader has given me a greater breadth of knowledge and lots of opportunities for reflection and growth.

Above all this has been an investment in myself - one which I am 100% sure will continue to give an excellent return long after completion.

Very well organised course, spot on for today's technology leaders. Covering all aspects of technology management essential in modern software companies. Best part I liked is, there was great deal of focus on softskills, required for any leader.

The content was relevant and well organized. I learned so much over the course of the program and will be rewatching many of the lectures!

As a chemical engineer, project manager, and tech leader driving innovation, I needed a foundational yet practical program that didn’t require stepping away for a full-time academic course. CTO Academy’s Digital MBA delivered what mattered most: actionable strategy, real-world tools, and the flexibility to learn while leading.

It offered clear, structured insights into business leadership, digital transformation, and executive decision-making—no fluff, just practical content I could apply immediately.

Most importantly, it gave me the tools to bridge industrial and mineral resource innovation with digital technology—an intersection rarely addressed in leadership programs. That’s exactly where I operate, and this course sharpened my ability to lead confidently in that space.

Efficient, relevant, and built for real-world impact—it’s ideal for tech leaders and project managers who want to grow without stepping away from the work that matters. A worthwhile investment, and one I’d recommend to any technically-minded leader ready to step up.
