Tim Kennaugh will be based in Manchester during the winter and Italy in the summer for the next two years starting from the beginning of next month.
Mark Christian is currently on the scheme and older brother Peter has just completed it before joining the new professional Team Sky project.
Previous Isle of Man riders to progress from the Academy are Mark Cavendish and Jonny Bellis.
