New Online Course: Blockchain Revolution for the Enterprise Specialization

in #blockchain6 years ago

Taught by Don Tapscott, Professor at INSEAD, and delivered through the Coursera platform, "Introduction to Blockchain Technologies" is the first of four courses that add up to the Blockchain Revolution for the Enterprise Specialization.

This is at a basic level and aimed at business managers considering the pros and cons of blockchain development compared to other online systems.

Also, be careful when signing up - Coursera are in the business of education and will try to sell you a certificate. If you don't need to show anybody such a piece of paper, then you can still access the course. Some Specializations are only fee-based but this appears to be free if you skip the payment options.

However, this is better than some other platforms that do not mention a fee until you've sent them an enquiry - that's shoddy from the likes of Oxford and MIT using the Getsmarter platform, especially as you can get MIT's Open Courseware for free.

Enjoy learning!

Will you be enrolling? I am contantly engaging in online learning, but since edx and coursera took away the free certificates, I no longer favor them over all other study.

Currently I'm enrolled in datacamp, on the all you can eat plan. I wonder if this course you mention will teach us anything new, or if I should just focus on programming to build and use the blockchain I already know....

Thanks for sharing!

I've done some interesting courses on Coursera, mainly philosophy, Edinburgh run a couple of courses on the philosophy of science - the subject I should have done at uni! - but I often ended up without time to truly engage so just quickly downloaded all the resources to peruse later.

If you already know something about blockchains, course is probably too basic. Might be better to scan MIT's lectures.
