Founded in 227, the Nostervium Wizard's Academy aims to provide a comprehensive education on magic, magic theory, and related skills. Graduates of the school will have the training they need to magically defend themselves and their city, as well as the power to enhance their mundane trades and endeavors with potent magicks. Students are rated in Spheres, indicating the level of spells they have been able to demonstrate, and Ranks, demonstrating the variety of spells they have been able to demonstrate. 3rd Rank students have up to three spells in their Sphere, 2nd Ranks have four to nine spells, and 1st Ranks have ten or more.

Founded in 228, Sebrand's War Academy seeks to make sure that the men and women of Nostervium are prepared for eternal vigilance against the dangers on all sides of the Frontier. Created after the Nostervium Company returned from the war against the Theocracy, the stories of the horrors of war ensured that the town was ready to begin training their youths for the day that they might have to fight, again, for their city's independence. However, the War Academy does not merely teach combat techniques, but also focuses on mundane crafts and professions that can be useful to a warrior while ensuring him a decent living during peacetime.

Established early in the settlement of Nostervium, the church has recently realized the changing times in the city. As the arcane casters and warriors are beginning to recruit children from all areas of the city, there is fear that children who might have otherwise drifted into religion will be convinced to take up another role. Therefore, the church has begun an active drive of its own to recruit children into the study of divinity. Only by keeping a large number of miracle-wielding clerics around can the city hope to maintain its high standards of health and low mortality rates. The school works by matching students up with priests of the deity they have chosen to follow, while providing a general pool of clerics that can teach general religious skills such as medicine, religious studies, and spellcasting. Teachers are listed by patron deity, and include the highest level of spell they can teach.

Not really an academy like the other endeavors, the NCfET is more like a program. The Nostervium great-hall now features a large bulletin board where notices can be posted. Adults who are willing to teach a class, or who would like apprentices, are encouraged to post their names and the job they are offering on the board. Children who would like to learn a certain trade are encouraged to put an announcement to this effect on the board and hope that someone replies. On rest days the town organizes workshops and introductory meetings so that children can get a taste of a trade before engaging in formal apprenticeship. Those who want apprentices for hard labor are encouraged to pay their workers a small stipend to encourage their attraction to the position. The Center has a small stipend to pay individuals to teach useful trades that are not in common supply in the city. The end result is a flexible department for continued education that can build on the training of the other academies, or become an education in itself.
