Cardano DeFi Masterclass is the latest online blockchain education course launched by EMURGO Academy in collaboration with the Cardano DeFi Alliance. It is a 6-week, 40-hour online learning course that provides students with all they need to know about DeFi (decentralized finance) in the Cardano blockchain ecosystem. In each week of the course, the Cardano DeFi Masterclass will be taught by different presenters from the top DeFi projects in Cardano including SundaeSwap, MuesliSwap, Indigo, and others.
To answer questions and engage with the Cardano DeFi community, EMURGO Academy hosted its first Cardano DeFi Masterclass Twitter Space. In case you missed it, here is a recap below of important questions and answers about the launch of the course.
- How is the DeFi Masterclass course will be different from the one with the University of Nicosia?
Great question! The UNIC DeFi Lab is focused on general DeFi concepts and best practices and focuses on various blockchain protocols. In contrast, the DeFi Masterclass’s entire focus is on the Cardano DeFi ecosystem, with the founding teams of the top DeFi apps helping the learners to understand the inside perspective and learn how to utilize each DeFi app in the best possible way. This is an industry-first educational program.
- What is the starting date and will there be subsequent batches? What if I can’t make the dates for this batch?
The batch start date is tentatively planned for September 8, 2023. We might launch the next batch in early 2024.
- What is the price of the Cardano DeFi Masterclass course?
It is priced at $1000. Registration and payment can be done at https://education.emurgo.io/cardano-defi-masterclass/ by clicking the “Enroll Now” button at the top.
- Are there any possibilities to get hired in the Cardano DeFi space through the Cardano DeFi Masterclass course?
The primary focus of the Cardano DeFi Masterclass is to help DeFi enthusiasts gain a depth of understanding and insights into the Cardano DeFi revolution. As a first step, anyone who wants to work on DeFi needs to first understand it properly, and this course should help you from that perspective. EMURGO Academy also has a wide offering of industry-vetted, strong technical development programs that can help you in the journey from an enthusiast to a dApp developer if you so desire.
- Will the course cover topics about bots in DeFi?
There are certain aspects of bot-based trading and arbitrage opportunities for bots. One of the prominent DeFi apps in the CDA Alliance has a focused approach to enablement of bots in such scenarios. However, we might only touch upon this aspect. The curriculum is ever-evolving and if we see a strong need for it, we will bring in those elements in the next iteration as well.
- What is the main goal of this course and how can it appeal to both technical and non-technical learners at the same time without leaving one behind?
Again a great question! Since anyone in the DeFi space needs to have strong fundamentals and a clear insight into the functioning of DeFi on Cardano, we feel that this course will help beginners and technical learners alike, as they are having a unique opportunity to discuss various aspects of DeFi with the experts from various DeFi DApps directly!
- What can I get from completing this course?
This course focuses on gaining a good understanding of how the various DeFi applications on Cardano work together, and you will be able to interact in the right manner, with the proper approach and understanding of how to use composability features in DeFi in Cardano.
In an upcoming Cardano DeFi Masterclass blog, we will unveil more FAQs about the course.
