National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) has collaborated with IBM to launch a course on Blockchain. The 12-week online course will prepare students to meet the demand for Blockchain architecture, design and use cases.
Available on the NPTEL website from July, this course will prepare students to meet the demand for blockchain skills by covering both conceptual and application aspects of Blockchain technology, says a press release from IIT Madas.
The course, co-certified by IBM, includes fundamental design and architectural primitives of Blockchain, system and security aspects, along with various use cases from different application domains.
NPTEL has recently introduced an initiative called NPTEL Industry Associate to bridge the industry-academia gap. By co-offering courses with industry leaders, NPTEL is leveraging industry expertise by conducting workshops for NPTEL certified students in niche domains and offering internships, the release said.
