Somerset Academy Inc. is a non-profit charter management organization based in Pembroke Pines, Florida.

Somerset Academies rely on Academica for curriculum, tests, facilities, security, staff recruitment, budgeting, accounting and other services.
The company assisted Somerset in launching additional charter schools by writing charter school applications, establishing corporate structures, providing experts to advocate and lobby government agencies, managing public relations & marketing, and ensuring regulatory compliance.
