Mike Jones is an industry veteran dedicated to elevating auction education across the United States. After years of professional experience and leadership within the auction community, he recognized a clear need: the industry thrives when education, ethics, and real-world skill development are held to the highest standard.

In 2019, Mike took a major step forward by purchasing World Wide College of Auctioneering, one of the longest-standing and most respected auction schools in the country. That acquisition solidified his commitment to building a unified, modern, best-in-class learning experience for both new and experienced auctioneers. He later expanded his vision to include Nashville Auction School and America’s Auction Academy, creating a multi-campus education network now housed under the Auction Academy brand.
