Blockchain and Ethereum Development Course - Full Day

Blockchain and Ethereum Development Course

This full day course will cover basic blockchain architecture and full stack development on Ethereum. The course is 50% lecture and 50% hands-on development. This is a technical course - we will develop smart contracts and deploy them to global networks as well as develop a front end for the application. This course provides everything you need to get started building your own application or make a career change to the hottest thing in tech!

You will receive a USB drive with a fully functioning Linux Ubuntu virtual machine with all the tools and configuration needed to develop, test, deploy, and run decentralized applications on the Ethereum blockchain. It'll also contain all the source code we'll use if you'd like to use copy/paste during the course or later at home. We will install this VirtualBox system on your laptop and you take it with you.

Cost is $250. This is 65% OFF for Meetup members during this initial course launch phase. Normal price will be $800 beginning in April. Space is very limited so register today! This is a lot of content for one day! Come ready to learn, but don't worry too much if this is all new to you. I will explain everything, and it's fine to take a "follow along" approach just like following a recipe - you won't have to understand all the underlying details at first to begin picking it up and experimenting. You will also get ongoing support after the course.
