Building Blockchain Knowledge One Student at a Time

We started in 2021 with a simple observation: blockchain education was either too theoretical or too rushed.

Most courses threw technical jargon at students without context. We wanted something different—training that actually prepared people for real work in this field.

From Frustration to Foundation

The idea came from watching talented developers struggle with blockchain concepts. Not because they weren't smart—they just needed better explanations and more practice time.

So we built our first course around that principle. Small groups, practical projects, and instructors who actually worked in the industry. That first cohort of eight students graduated in early 2022. Six of them now work with blockchain technology professionally.

We're not chasing massive enrollment numbers. Our autumn 2025 programs will follow the same approach—focused groups where everyone gets proper attention and feedback on their work.

The People Behind the Programs

Our instructors come from development backgrounds. They've built applications, debugged smart contracts at 2am, and learned these technologies the hard way.

Lead Technical Instructor

Linh spent five years building distributed systems before moving into education. She's particular about code quality and has a knack for explaining complex concepts without dumbing them down. Her students either love or fear her code reviews—sometimes both.

Kasper designs our course structure and keeps everything current with industry changes. He previously worked on DeFi projects in Singapore and brings that practical experience into how we structure learning paths. Less theory, more application.

Why Small Classes Matter

Blockchain development has a steep learning curve. When you're working with immutable ledgers and writing code that handles real value, mistakes are expensive teachers.

That's why we cap our classes at twelve students. It means our instructors can review everyone's code, catch misunderstandings early, and provide feedback that actually helps people improve.

Yes, it limits how many people we can teach. But we'd rather do this properly than rush through material with overcrowded sessions.

What Guides Our Work

These aren't corporate values from a retreat—they're principles that emerged from teaching hundreds of students over the past few years.

01

Honest About Complexity

We don't pretend blockchain is easy to learn. Some concepts take time to click. Our job is providing clear explanations and enough practice for things to make sense—not selling shortcuts that don't exist.

02

Practice Over PowerPoints

You learn to code by writing code. Our students spend most of their time building things, making mistakes, and fixing them. Lectures are short. Project time is long. That's intentional.

03

Current With the Field

Blockchain technology changes fast. We update our materials regularly based on what's actually being used in production environments. If a tool or framework becomes outdated, we replace it. Simple as that.

04

Realistic Expectations

Completing our program doesn't guarantee you a blockchain job. It gives you skills that companies look for. What you do with those skills depends on your effort, existing background, and honestly—some luck with timing and opportunities.
