[edit] Training
Ghost trainees spent an average of four years at the Academy. Attempting to speed the process resulted in "bad" ghosts. Most of the instructors, like the Program director, were non-psychics.[2][1]
[edit] History
[edit] Terran Confederacy
Prior to the Great War the Academy was located on Tarsonis. A statue of Major General Brantigan Fole was placed in front.
The Confederate Academy was used to conduct secret research on the zerg.
The Academy was destroyed during a high-profile raid by the Sons of Korhal that made the rebel group, and its leader, Arcturus Mengsk, notorious. At the time the post commander was Major Rumm.[3]
The facility was restored on Tarsonis only to be destroyed during the zerg invasion of the planet.[1]
[edit] Terran Dominion
The Terran Dominion rebuilt the Academy and moved it to Ursa.[1] The Ghost Academy is not considered a secret organization, but has been promoted as a wholly positive institution where psychic children are taught to control their powers. The secrets of the Academy are being targeted by former Dominion senator Corbin Phash and Umojan Protectorate minister Jorgensen.[4]
The Dominion keeps zerg as experimental test subjects at the Academy.[5]
