Why is it essential?

Blockchain and its application requires expert knowledge in order to ensure its succesful implementation across society. Knowledge ensures the correct and most suitable application of blockchain. Accordingly, structured educational programs guarentee the delivery of the necessary educational contents and helps prepare the current and future generation of decisionmakers. Further, any new global technology needs mass adoption and mass adoption can only be generated if ALL participants support global education and education standards.

 

Organizations such as universities, the European Parliament, NGOs and foundations are running pilots to use blockchain within education. These use cases could have a huge impact within education, which could create mass adoption. The knowledge acquired from these pilots and implemented solutions should be shared with other organizations across the educational market, such that everybody can learn the lessons learned from these initiatives.
