Crypto College: Coursera And INSEAD Launch Online Blockchain Class

As the cryptocurrency industry matures, demand for expertise on blockchain will continue to climb. To fill that need, online education institute Coursera is launching a specialized curriculum, in collaboration with business academy INSEAD, to help educate entrepreneurs in the new technology.

Dubbed “Blockchain Revolution for the Enterprise,” the new curriculum aims to bring advanced level education and skill sets to mid-career professionals looking to implement blockchain into their businesses, or to start their own blockchain centered project.

The new online classes seek to teach students how to position themselves within the blockchain ecosystem, evaluate implementation challenges and prospects of emerging blockchain projects, and assess the feasibility of applying blockchain to their own area of expertise.

The curriculum joins other blockchain focused courses offered by leading education institutes including:

The four-course Specialization will be taught by tech entrepreneur and founder of the Blockchain Research Institute, Don Tapscott. Tapscott, who has authored books on technological revolutions since the 1980’s, sees the next innovative horizon in blockchain. As such, his organization has launched over 80 projects on research, development, application, and implementation of blockchain technologies since its inception.

In a press release, Tapscott cites education as a key factor in the mass adaptation of blockchain into mainstream society. Says Tapscott:

“Educating leaders is one of the keys to accelerating the widespread adoption of blockchain. Working with INSEAD and Coursera, we’ve been able to develop the world’s definitive online course for blockchain in business”

The first course installment of Blockchain Revolution for the Enterprise Specialization is available today, with further updates to be released as the year goes on.
