In this full day course, we will put a “face” behind these jargons and the basics of solidity and blockchain, as well as dApps, the decentralised application behind smart contracts.

Participants will learn about the programming language Solidity for writing smart contracts and learn to deploy and test a simple token. Upon completion of the course, participants will understand the basic technology, write simple smart contracts and skills required to build a decentralised application on the Ethereum platform.

At the end of the course, we will issue a Completion of Certificate to all participants who complete at least 75% of the attendance.
