The Steemit Crypto Academy is now coming up to the two month mark.

This is a good time to pause for a short while, and review the progress of the Academy to date.

We have been delighted with the interest and engagement in the project.

Participation numbers have been excellent with more than 800 homework posts last week.

We are now going to take a two week break. During this time the Steemit team will be going through all the applications to recruit some new Crypto Professors.

The break will also give the Professors and @steemcurator02 time to finalize the grading and curation of any remaining homework posts.

@steemcurator02 I just created an application post. I feel I might be a good fit for this. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. https://steemit.com/cryptoprofessor/@joeparys/steem-crypto-professor

Thanks a lot for this opportunity!

Good idea to increase the number of professors but I have a suggestion to make and hope it should be taken into consideration. I think those already holding other positions such as country representatives should not be selected as professors because holding double positions does not permit that person to be effective and efficient. Those without positions on steemit should be given that opportunity. Also, from the announcement of application of new professors, @steemitblog mentioned that those in countries who already had crypto professors should not be considered. Here I noticed they mentioned applications from Nigeria for example already have a crypto professor. I hope all this should be checked and give others the opportunity to serve on steem.
