Kingdom-First Pillars
Our work is built on eternal principles that transcend technical trends.
Kingdom-First Living
Matthew 6:33 (NKJV)"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you."
Impact-Driven Work
Matthew 5:16 (NKJV)"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven."
Excellence
Proverbs 22:29 (NKJV)"Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before unknown men."
Servant Leadership
Matthew 23:11 (NKJV)"But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant."
Spiritual Wisdom
1 Corinthians 2:7, 16 (NKJV)"But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory... For 'who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?' But we have the mind of Christ."
Prayer & Meditation

Frequently Asked Questions
Providing clarity for parents and organizations.
Not necessarily. While students learn real tools for building digital products, the program is centered on creative problem-solving, systematic innovation, and purpose-driven thinking. Students are guided step-by-step, regardless of starting level.
The registration fee for Adullam Academy is $300 CAD. This covers the full 8-week bootcamp experience, including all instructional materials, project resources, and weekend stand-up sessions.
Each bootcamp runs for 8 weeks. Students meet asynchronously during the week and join 1-hour stand-ups. We run 3 cohorts each year to accommodate different schedules.
Adullam Academy is 100% online. Students attend live bootcamp sessions remotely and collaborate with their teams through virtual stand-ups. This flexible format allows families from anywhere to participate without geographic constraints.
Students work in teams to build multiple apps, games, and AI-powered solutions throughout the bootcamp, and they create and launch a working app prototype by the end. Projects are built with industry-standard tools and libraries, preparing students for real-world opportunities like internships.
The program is designed specifically for children and teens aged 8 to 16.
The program is designed to be engaging and challenging, while still being supportive and age-appropriate. Students are coached through the process, with a strong emphasis on learning by building.
Students will get the best experience by practicing outside live stand-ups, especially since the program runs asynchronously. That said, the weekly stand-ups are designed to keep students on track and supported.
Adullam Academy integrates faith and innovation intentionally:
- Every session begins with prayer
- Each session includes a Wisdom Cache (Scripture-based reflection) to reinforce how God’s Word informs every area of life
- The curriculum reflects core values like Kingdom-first living, servant leadership, excellence, and impact-driven work
We look for growth in areas like:
- Increased technical skill and comfort building real projects
- Stronger confidence and creative problem-solving
- Greater ability to think purpose-first and impact-driven
- Deeper practice of spiritual wisdom and applying Scripture to everyday life
No, parents do not need to be present during sessions. However, we encourage you to check in periodically to see what your child is building and celebrate their progress. The stand-up sessions are designed to be student-led with instructor guidance.
We keep class sizes small to ensure personalized attention and meaningful interaction. Each cohort is intentionally limited to allow for one-on-one guidance, collaborative learning, and a strong sense of community.
That’s great! Prior coding experience is welcome but not required. Each week offers both “Easy” and “Advanced” modes, allowing students to choose more challenging options if they’re feeling confident. This means experienced coders can push themselves further while beginners work at a comfortable pace—all within the same cohort.
