Torchwood Academy History
Torchwood Academy began back in 2000. After Alex Hopkins handed over the position of leader of Torchwood Three to Captain Jack Harkness and shot himself as 1999 was ringing out and 2000 was ringing in. Jack had to find a whole new team to help him protect the people of earth from alien threats. One by one Jack built a new Torchwood team and Torchwood Academy was also slowly being built - gaining students that were hand picked by Jack and Academy staff that were also hand picked by Jack.
Every year Torchwood Three would help Jack find new students to recruit into the Academy. They would look for the young and old that would be able to handle death, alien threats and things of the like, if the team felt they couldn't handle such things they would not recruit these people. Only the best were ever recruited.
Most students don't end up having what it takes to be a Torchwood team member - but that's fine by Torchwood, there's plenty of stuff out there that they need your help with. Some go on to work for the Cardiff Police - somewhat like Torchwoods inside spy, some go on to work for Flat Holm - the place that cares for the rift victims, while others stay and for a few more years to see if they can become Torchwood ready, then the other's that just can't get onto any Torchwood team end up getting some lame job after having their memory erased from the lovley little pill - Retcon.
Torchwood One
Was rebuilt with the help of an old friend. Jack Harkness had convinced the Doctor that Torchwood was no longer against him but to help protect earth from alien threats. The Doctor did what he could do to help rebuild Torchwood One and now Torchwood Three are in a race with new alien threats to get Academy students trained and positioned in Torchwood One before these new threats arrive.
