The Almas Academy Council was a satellite administrative body subservient to the Council of First Knowledge. A seven member Council, these Jedi Masters were appointed to govern the Jedi Academy on the planet Almas, within the Cularin system. The academy itself was the prototype for a new kind of academy that the High Council had designed: a Ranger Academy. Jedi Rangers would serve as a localized peacekeeping entity capable of overseeing entire systems or sectors depending on size, with a Watchman serving as the academy's headmaster. Organized around this notion, the Almas Academy experiment was considered a success and after the Clone Wars the Order began modelling other satellite academies around this plan.
