When you're done, your Academy has a name, a web address students can visit, and your own logo and
color.

**Who can do this:** the account owner on the Academy plan. Editors see the Academy's name and link,
but not these settings.

## Create your Academy

1. In the menu, click **Academy**.
2. Under **Set up your Academy**, type a **Name**, such as "Nora's Baking School".
3. The **Address** fills itself in from the name. Your Academy will be at
   www.chirpbuilder.com/learn/ followed by this address. Change it if you like: 3 to 60 lowercase
   letters, numbers and dashes.
4. Click **Create Academy**.

Each workspace has its own Academy. To set one up for another workspace, switch to it with
**Workspace** at the top of the menu first.

## Add a tagline, logo and more

1. Click **Edit Academy** at the top of the Academy page.
2. Fill in what you need:
   - **Address** (1): you can change it, but links with the old address stop working when you do. Pick
     the one you want before you share it.
   - **Tagline:** one line. It's the big heading on your Academy's home page.
   - **About the Academy:** a few sentences under the heading.
   - **Logo:** click **Upload** to add an image. It appears on your Academy's pages, in the lessons and
     on certificates.
   - **Color:** the accent color of your Academy's pages and certificates. **Default** goes back to
     blue.
   - **Course catalog** (2): **Public** lets search engines list your Academy's home page;
     **Unlisted** keeps it to people who have the link.
3. Click **Save**.
