The Founding Year begins 1 January 2027.
The first ProofYear is a twelve-month operating test of the institution. Admissions remain open continuously.
The Founding Year begins with digitally demonstrable knowledge work because evidence can be collected, inspected and verified there with unusually high clarity. ProofYear does not guarantee graduation, employment or income. It asks whether each accepted applicant has a credible one-year path from their current state to demonstrable competence and economic agency.
