Want to Learn How to Use Blockchain While in COVID-19 Lockdown?

SIMBA Chain Has Free Training and a Freemium for Newbies

Four weeks into the mandatory COVID-19 lockdown and two things are remarkably clear. The novelty of working in one’s pajamas, Zoom meetings, and kids constantly underfoot has lost its glow and neither binging Netflix nor comfort foods are sustainable activities.

Blockchain innovator SIMBA Chain has the solution for coronavirus-induced turpitude: a new training website for those who want to learn how to build and deploy decentralized applications (apps) using the company’s freemium low-code blockchain platform. Dapps, underpinned by smart contracts, are the backbone of blockchain solutions used to solve a growing array of business and government needs where information immutability, track-ability, and accessibility are critical.

Joel Neidig, CEO, and co-founder of SIMBA Chain made the decision to offer complimentary blockchain training on the freemium low-code platform to help people up-skill while working from home or furloughed.

“America’s economy has been broadsided by the COVID-19 pandemic, with a quarter of our workforce sitting on the sidelines wondering what their next move should be. It’s not just service industry workers who are without work; freelance developers and consultants have also been displaced,” says Neidig. “Once we get through this temporary economic lockdown, the demand for skills in technology like blockchain will be greater than before. So we’re making training available to all.”

SIMBA Chain is initially offering three micro-learning sessions suitable for users of any skill level on demand via the company’s training portal:

  • Building Your First Smart Dapp – available now
  • Dapps Made Simple – available soon
  • Ethereum Smart Contracts – available soon

The micro-learning sessions were designed and are taught by SIMBA Chain Blockchain Master Trainer Tommy Cooksey, who is also an AWS Authorized Instructor at Tech Data. The online sessions combine video and text and are self-paced. Online learners can expect each session to take 30 to 45 minutes to complete.
