The Blockchain+ Developer course offers an in-depth journey into the dynamic world of blockchain technology and smart contract development. Beginning with the foundational structure of blockchain, participants delve into consensus mechanisms, the principles of decentralized systems, and the transformative potential of smart contracts. Learners will gain proficiency in Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and Solidity programming, exploring advanced topics such as Solidity structures, tokenization processes, and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The curriculum introduces cutting-edge development tools like Truffle, Ganache, and advanced DApp testing techniques, equipping participants to build secure and scalable decentralized applications. The program also covers Hyperledger Fabric, guiding learners through its architecture, chain code development, REST API integration, and Golang programming for enterprise blockchain solutions. The course concludes with comprehensive training on chain code auditing and debugging, preparing participants for the challenges of blockchain application deployment in real-world scenarios.

System requirements

Minimum technical expectations for the online learning environment. Your IT team can use this as a checklist.

Internet connectivity

Cable, Fiber, DSL, or LEO Satellite (i.e. Starlink) internet with speeds of at least 10mb/sec download and 5mb/sec upload are recommended for the best experience.

While cellular hotspots may allow access to our courses, users may experience connectivity issues by trying to access our learning management system. This is due to the potential high download and upload latency of cellular connections. Therefore, it is not recommended that students use a cellular hotspot as their primary way of accessing their courses.
