📊 #Polkadot The Blockchain Academy Opens Applications for Cohort 6 at the Swiss Campus
The Polkadot Blockchain Academy (PBA) has revealed that it will host a new course for developers in Switzerland as part of its return to Europe. Starting in March 2025, the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HSLU) will be the venue for Cohort 6 of the PBA Campus.
For the first time in over two years, the Polkadot Blockchain Academy will take place in Europe for Cohort 6. As part of the Zug Blockchain initiative and the establishment of the new institution for blockchain research, classes will be taught at the HSLU campus in collaboration with its Blockchain Laboratory. Developers will learn practical skills to work with Polkadot and use blockchain technology to create innovative web3 applications during the nearly three-week session.
Dr. Gavin Wood and many other prominent figures from Polkadot will teach essential topics in Cohort 6. These will provide students with a comprehensive education in blockchain and equip them with the knowledge they need to become the next wave of innovators and thought leaders in blockchain engineering.
Although Polkadot's technology stack is the main focus of the course material, the PBA is intended for blockchain developers from diverse backgrounds and ecosystems. It is aimed at developers who are web2 developers thinking about transitioning to web3 or developers who are currently working with blockchain.
