Impact Academy
The AMS Impact Academy is a 36 month learning system that links development to business results. Organizations build flexible tracks per role and level, aligned with strategy, powered by AMS expertise and supported by learning credits and checkpoints that allow continuous adaptation.
Sustainable learning & development
The Impact Academy turns learning into strategic impact. No stand-alone programs, but an integrated approach that evolves with your organization and its ambitions.
Flexible, personalized learning paths
We design tailored tracks per role, team, and management level, with access to master classes that deepen knowledge and translate it into practice.
A learning community that anchors knowledge
Participants don’t just learn individually, they strengthen each other. You build a culture where knowledge is shared, collaboration grows, and learning drives lasting results.
A flexible learning model aligned with your strategy
The Impact Academy starts from your organization: its strategic ambitions, talent needs, and context. Together, we translate these into learning tracks per role and level, grounded in the research and expertise of Antwerp Management School.
The model is set up around flexible building blocks. Organizations combine high end master classes, delivered by academic experts and experienced practitioners, with strategic sessions, networking moments, and individual or team based support. There is no fixed curriculum or academic calendar. Learning follows your organizational rhythm.
Because organizations continue to evolve, learning evolves with them. Through learning credits and intermediate evaluations, tracks remain aligned with shifting priorities and emerging challenges. This ensures learning stays relevant and closely connected to strategic impact.
From challenge to impact
Organizations invest heavily in learning, yet impact often falls short. Teams work in silos, knowledge doesn’t scale, and development drifts away from strategy. The Impact Academy brings structure, focus, and direction.
Your Challenge
The war for talent is here to stay. Winning it takes more than strong recruitment.
Organizations also need a clear approach to develop, retain, and engage talent in line with their mission and long term goals.
But how do you ensure learning truly delivers impact?
That knowledge is applied and shared?
That managers grow professionally and personally?
That teams collaborate more effectively?
And that your organization moves forward in a sustainable way, strategically, financially, and socially?
Our Impact
The Impact Academy addresses these challenges by turning learning into a coherent, organization wide system instead of isolated initiatives.
A sustainable learning system
No stand alone programs, but a long term structure that evolves with your organization and its ambitions.
One framework, multiple learning tracks
Personalized paths per role and level, all connected within one coherent model.
Learning embedded in the organization
Individual development reinforced through knowledge sharing, collaboration, and community building.
Core expertise domains
The Impact Academy builds on the core expertise of Antwerp Management School. Learning tracks can be composed across key domains such as:
Strategy and Leadership
-
People and Organization

Innovation and Entrepreneurship
-
Supply Chain and Ecosystems
-

Sustainability
Each domain combines academic depth with practical relevance, ensuring insights can be applied directly within your organization.
Flexible by design
There is no fixed program structure. You choose the topics, formats, and timing that fit your organization’s needs and pace. Learning credits allow you to spread development over time, adjust focus areas, and scale participation across teams and levels.
This flexibility makes the Impact Academy suitable for organizations operating in complex, fast changing environments.
Personalized tracks
Every participant follows an individual learning track based on role, experience, and ambitions. At the same time, learning is anchored at organizational level through shared moments and community building.
