Binance teams up with European universities to train students in Web3

Binance, the crypto exchange giant, partners with renowned European universities to offer a new generation of accredited Web3 courses. This ambitious project aims to democratize access to blockchain education and prepare students for the jobs of tomorrow.

Binance Academy shapes the pioneers of Web3 with accredited university courses

Binance, the global giant of crypto exchanges, is taking a new step in its educational commitment by launching Web3 courses accredited by leading European universities.

In a press release published on its blog, Binance Academy, the educational arm of Binance, announced partnerships with three prestigious European universities: the Prague University of Economics and Business (VŠE), the European Business Institute (EBI) in Luxembourg, and ESCP Business School.

Together, they have designed a series of certifying courses on digital assets and blockchain technology. Developed by professors specializing in crypto, these programs will cover all essential aspects, from the operation of Bitcoin to advanced applications of DeFi.

“Education plays a crucial role in fostering the adoption of these revolutionary technologies,” emphasizes Yi He, co-founder of Binance. “We want to offer affordable access to these courses to prepare future generations for the jobs of tomorrow.”

Accessible and recognized training

In this context, Binance has set a promotional registration fee of only 4 USDT, compared to the initially planned 10 USDT. Upon completion of the course, participants will receive a certificate jointly issued by the partner university and Binance Academy.

This initiative is part of Binance’s goal to become a major player in blockchain education worldwide. In fact, the crypto giant is even considering establishing a permanent headquarters, a strategic change from its previous model. With its considerable resources, Binance could create its own physical university dedicated to Web3 technologies.

Moreover, more recently, on March 19, Changpeng Zhao, the founder of Binance, launched the Giggle Academy, a free online education platform that aims to make education more engaging and interactive through gaming.

By collaborating with reputable academic institutions, Binance hopes to stimulate the adoption of blockchain and prepare students for the emerging jobs of this rapidly expanding ecosystem. A winning approach to bridge the skills gap and facilitate the smooth integration of these revolutionary technologies.
