One of the culture’s biggest voices is looking to help the new generation of storytellers. Kai Cenat has launched the Streamer University.

As spotted on Hypebeast, the Brooklyn, New York, native is embarking on a new initiative. On Tuesday (May 7), he announced Streamer University. The project will invite content creators from all walks of life to take courses on how they can advance their skills and better give their respective brands a point of difference. As expected the announcement was presented via a skit. The video, which is inspired by the popular movie Harry Potter series, finds Cenat traveling to recruit an upcoming personality to the school. He expressed his enthusiasm in an accompanying Instagram post.

“I’m excited to extend to you a most heartfelt welcome to the very first class of Streamer University,” he said. “Here, you will find a school where chaos is encouraged and content is king. I look forward to seeing you all on campus for our first-ever semester.”

Kai Cenat originally teased the initiative back in February during a Twitch livestream. “I’m going to rent out a university over a course of a weekend. It will be streaming university. Okay? I’m going to rent it out.” He went on to add that he hoped to have Mr. Beast and Mark Rober teach courses. The Streamer University website further details the spirit of the educational institution. “Streamers of all backgrounds will have the opportunity to showcase their personalities as students, alongside both unrealized, upcoming and well-established creators,” the statement read.

Enrollment for Streamer University is open now. You can read more about the opportunity here.
