Solana Launches 6-Week Free Developer Program

Nas Academy just launched a free 6-week developer program in collaboration with the Solana Foundation. Targeting beginners with basic technical and programming knowledge, the course looks to help upcoming developers learn blockchain development so that they can launch their own applications and further their skills as web-3 developers.

The program will be taught via live online classes, and span across a duration of 6 weeks starting in March 2023. There will be nine sessions in the program, covering topics such as Solana's fundamentals and development lifecycle, understanding tokens, minting NFTs, and Solana's underlying programming language, Rust.

Those accepted will be able to access opportunities for grants in the Solana ecosystem, as well as earn a program certificate from Nas Academy, which is recognized by its international partners.

Access to fireside chats will allow participants to expand their web3 network, giving them the opportunity to network with upcoming developers and Solana builders that have previously shipped products on-chain.

With limited seats available, it is recommended to apply early to be able to get access to the program. You can apply here.
