MINNEAPOLIS - TelAve -- JAG Universe today launched JAG Academy, a global certification platform built to become the first unified industry standard for the consciousness, wellness, and human-development sector — a fast-growing global field with no recognized credentialing authority. Curriculum, faculty, and ambassador programs are now in active development.

"This sector is one of the fastest-growing industries on Earth, yet it has no equivalent of the AMA or the Bar," said Jeffrey Alan Gruhlke, Founder and Architect of JAG Universe. "The result is fragmentation and a trust deficit between practitioners, clients, and institutions. JAG Academy is built to close that gap and establish a unified standard the world can trust."

The Academy's name carries a documented linguistic foundation. Gruhlke named his original program "JAG" in 2018 using his personal initials. On December 14, 2025, he discovered that JAG (जग) is an ancient Sanskrit word from the Rig Veda — humanity's oldest extant religious text, dated to approximately 1500 BCE — meaning "The Universe." The Academy's curriculum integrates 13 Domains of Education spanning foundational sciences, ancient wisdom traditions, Eastern medicine, and quantum studies.

JAG Academy has set a public goal of certifying 144,000 transformation professionals worldwide, each projected to directly serve approximately 1,000 individuals — a combined reach of roughly 144 million people. The Academy is designed to operate in 42+ languages through a four-level credential: Practitioner, Facilitator, Teacher, and Master.

Gruhlke served in the United States Air Force as a C-5 Galaxy Crew Chief — four years and seven months active duty plus one year in the Reserves. He is a two-time Winter X Games competitor, multi-discipline motorsports champion, and was ordained through the Universal Life Church in 2019. He has spent thirteen years researching consciousness, health, and ancient wisdom traditions worldwide.
