The academy was established in 2002 under the Ministry of Tourism, Government of Nepal. The subjects taught in this academy are under the management faculty of Tribhuvan University.

A team of 18 people, including 12 students of the academy, had successfully climbed the 'Mera Peak' mountain in Solukhumbu.

At present, mountaineering is being taught up to master level in Nepal. Currently, students of the second batch of master level are studying. Similarly, the fifth batch has come at the bachelor level. Similarly, Mountaineering is also being taught in various colleges at Ten plus Two level. In addition, the subject is being taught in some schools, said Lhakpafuti Sherpa, the outgoing president of the academy. For such work, the academy has been assisting in curriculum development and giving orientation to the teachers concerned.

Necessary preparations are being made to turn this academy, which currently teaches postgraduate subjects, into a university in the future. With the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, as well as eight mountains higher than 8,000 meters, it is agreed that this academy could become a hub for any person or organization in the world interested in mountaineering and mountain research in the future.
