The Academy, also known as Akademos-- is a place where you will find different kinds of mutants. A school for gifted youngsters where their powers are trained for them to protect their loved ones and themselves-- a shelter for some, a place to receive a proper education without judgment and have a chance to live like any ordinary human being. The founder of the said school was unknown to the public as well as the location of it. The only thing they know is that it's a place for mutants.
