About QA Academy
Built by one passionate developer for the QA community
QA Academy was created by one passionate developer and tech professional — me, Pete — who spent years in the trenches of QA, automation, leadership, and hiring.
After seeing too many talented people stuck in outdated training or struggling to break into tech, I decided to build something better: a platform where real, industry-validated QA skills are accessible to everyone — from complete beginners to aspiring leaders.
Our Core Promise
Every lesson, every learning path, and every piece of content on this platform goes through strict human review before it is published.
- ✗No AI-generated fluff
- ✗No unverified theory
- ✓Only content that has been professionally reviewed and approved by experienced QA professionals (engineers, leads, managers)
We believe quality assurance starts with quality content.
That's why nothing reaches learners unless a human expert has personally validated it as useful, accurate, and valuable to the industry.
Built for Real Careers
This isn't another generic course library.
It's a focused academy designed to help you:
- •Switch into QA from any background
- •Master manual testing fundamentals
- •Become proficient in automation & SDET-level skills
- •Grow into leadership and strategic QA roles
We're proud to be 100% independent, built from real-world experience, and committed to keeping the best content free or affordable forever.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
