Beschreibung

Besides the Blockchain Foundation Courseware - English publication you are advised to obtain the Introduction to Blockchain Technology by Tiana Laurence. Blockchain and other emerging technological breakthroughs will most likely be part of the fourth industrial revolution. These disruptive concepts will form the cornerstone of how business will be conducted in the future. Are you ready for the challenge? Blockchain technology is not just about bitcoin, or digital currencies and is not a topic reserved only for meeting rooms filled with tech nerds. This disruptive technology will form a pivotal part of the future of business. Those who grasp it early will be at a great advantage to those who don’t. “We’re quite confident,” said Marc Andreessen in an interview with The Washington Post in 2014, “that when we’re sitting here in 20 years, we’ll be talking about [blockchain technology] the way we talk about the Internet today.” In this course book and the accompanying training, we explore new and less well known use cases for blockchain technology, in many fields spanning across industry and government. We explain how blockchain technology actually works in a non-technical manner. We explore how this pivotal technology might be best applied to transform your business. We also dive into the pro’s and cons of blockchain technology and cover all core topics to prepare you fully for the EXIN Blockchain fundamentals certification. We give you the tools you will need to thrive in the future of business. We are sure you will make your journey into the exciting world of blockchain a fun and more importantly a successful one.

Publisher about the Courseware

The Courseware was created by experts from the industry who served as the author(s) for this publication. The input for the material is based on existing publications and the experience and expertise of the author(s). The material has been revised by trainers who also have experience working with the material. Close attention was also paid to the key learning points to ensure what needs to be mastered.

The objective of the courseware is to provide maximum support to the trainer and to the student, during his or her training. The material has a modular structure and according to the author(s) has the highest success rate should the student opt for examination. The Courseware is also accredited for this reason, wherever applicable.

In order to satisfy the requirements for accreditation the material must meet certain quality standards. The structure, the use of certain terms, diagrams and references are all part of this accreditation. Additionally, the material must be made available to each student in order to obtain full accreditation. To optimally support the trainer and the participant of the training assignments, practice exams and results are provided with the material.

Direct reference to advised literature is also regularly covered in the sheets so that students can find additional information concerning a particular topic. The decision to leave out notes pages from the Courseware was to encourage students to take notes throughout the material.

Although the courseware is complete, the possibility that the trainer deviates from the structure of the sheets or chooses to not refer to all the sheets or commands does exist. The student always has the possibility to cover these topics and go through them on their own time. It is recommended to follow the structure of the courseware and publications for maximum exam preparation.

The courseware and the recommended literature are the perfect combination to learn and understand the theory.
