2025-26 ARI Live Courses

Ayn Rand described Objectivism as “a philosophy for living on earth.” This idea is at the heart of ARI Live Courses, which provide the world’s best courses in Objectivism taught by some of the world’s leading experts in Ayn Rand’s philosophy. Whether you’re relatively new to Ayn Rand or you’ve read and listened to everything, our live courses will take you to the next level to help you learn, live, and advocate Objectivism.

Course Structure

Courses are 8-10 weeks long and conducted online, featuring weekly live classes via Zoom videoconference taught by expert instructors. Live attendance is encouraged but not required—recordings are made available after each live class. Each week, you’ll receive readings and other material to review and before the live class. In some courses, this will include watching a pre-recorded lesson in advance of an in-depth discussion of that material in the live class. Courses also feature optional graded assignments so you can receive personalized feedback on your understanding of the subject matter.

Additional benefits: Instructors are typically available to meet with students outside of the live classes for additional support. ARI coaches are available to help students succeed in their classes and integrate what they are learning into their lives.
