đ Bitcoin Mass Adoption: El Salvador Launches BTC Certification for Civil Servants
El Salvador is taking another bold step in its Bitcoin journey by launching a comprehensive certification program for civil servants! Aiming to upskill 80,000 government employees, the initiative emphasizes strategic management and public policy, ensuring that the entire nation is well-versed in Bitcoin's potential.
The National Bitcoin Office (ONBTC) is spearheading this ambitious project, offering a 160-hour virtual training programâCertification in Public Administration 1. The course, divided into seven modules, covers everything from legal frameworks to practical management skills related to Bitcoin as legal tender. đ
Why This Matters:
Stacy Herbert, the director of ONBTC, believes that educating civil servants will have a "compounding effect" on El Salvador's Bitcoin-driven economy. With this initiative, the country is not just focusing on short-term gains but is investing in the long-term success of its Bitcoin and tech policies. Herbert hinted at more educational projects on the horizon, further strengthening the nationâs commitment to crypto.
The training is conducted by the Higher School of Innovation in Public Administration (ESIAP), a project initiated by President Nayib Bukele in 2021. This educational push is part of a broader effort to raise the standard of governance and public administration in El Salvador.
El Salvador's success with Bitcoin adoption has not gone unnoticed. Argentina, facing its own economic challenges, has begun collaborating with El Salvador to learn from its Bitcoin adoption experience. Earlier this year, Argentinaâs securities regulator met with El Salvadorâs National Commission of Digital Assets to discuss potential crypto adoption strategies.
It looks like we're one step closer to crypto mass adoption!
