Harness Your Restlessness
Acton is not for the faint of heart. You’ll face challenges that require courage, grit, and a never-give-up attitude. You’ll be put to the test day and night. When you finish at Acton, you’ll have already faced the difficult questions real entrepreneurs face every day in life and business. And you will join an elite tribe — Acton entrepreneurs who see the invisible patterns that underlie successful businesses and have mastered the habits that bring them to life.
Our Program
Learning the Entrepreneurial Journey from Entrepreneurs Who Have Lived it.
Our teachers aren’t theory-driven academics. They’re successful entrepreneurs. Through trial, error and perseverance, they have harvested over $5.5 billion for themselves, their employees and investors. And every day they serve you, they bring hard-won lessons from trials, tribulations and triumphs from the real world.
Our Teachers
More than Just the Bottom Line
Character is destiny
We believe that clear thinking leads to good decisions, that good decisions lead to the right habits, that the right habits lead to character, and that character becomes destiny.
Called to change the world
We believe that each Acton scholar will change the world in a profound way.
Doing is learning
We believe in learning by doing. Our entrepreneur-teachers use the Socratic method to inspire you to develop the habits, judgment, and character of a master entrepreneur.
Clarity and competition
We believe that clear contracts and a competitive grading system encourage the perspective, discipline, and accountability required to run a successful business.
Individual responsibility
We believe in economic, political, and religious liberty. We are dedicated to equipping entrepreneurs who believe in individual responsibility and are willing to invest in a healthy civil society.
Individual gifts and talents
We believe each person who walks through our doors is a genius who deserves to change the world in a profound way.
Living a meaningful life
We believe in building profitable businesses, but know that living a meaningful life is far more important.
