Ninja Segging & Subbing Academy (NSSA) is a community project dedicated to teaching volunteers to segment and subtitle on Viki. The project’s mission includes educating users about the diverse volunteer opportunities available throughout the site. Newcomers and experienced contributors alike are welcome to join the channel and share their knowledge and skills.
Founded in January 2014, NSSA was created by a small group of dedicated volunteers with a vision to offer a structured program for users to learn to participate in segmenting and subtitling projects. Initially beginning with the segmenting program, the Academy quickly grew in popularity, welcoming nearly 200 applicants within its first month. By May 2014, NSSA received its official graduate badge from Viki and continued to expand, launching its website in June of the same year. In August 2017, following the discontinuation of Viki's fan channels, NSSA transitioned to an official channel.
Since its inception, NSSA has become an integral part of the Viki community, hosting events, celebrating anniversaries, and gradually evolving its programs. Over the years, NSSA expanded its subbing academies, launching the Dutch Subbing Academy in 2016, merging RoVikiTrad with Ninja Academy to become the Romanian Subbing Academy in 2017, the French Subbing Academy in 2019, the Italian and Portuguese Subbing Academies in 2020, and the Spanish, German, and Hindi Subbing Academies in 2024.
By its 10th anniversary in 2024, NSSA had proudly seen more than 830 academy graduates between its segmenting and subtitling programs and over 1400 sandbox graduates. In 2024, NSSA launched its Discord server, inviting students and graduates to join the community and stay connected. In October 2024, the NSSA website migrated to a new platform and received a makeover to provide an enhanced user experience with updated resources, an intuitive interface, and additional features aimed at supporting current students and graduates.
Despite its growth, NSSA remains committed to its humble beginnings, continuing to provide volunteer learning opportunities to the community.
