Buenos Aires' Ministry of Education has partnered with the ETH Kipu Foundation to integrate blockchain and Ethereum technologies into high school curricula starting from August 27.
Program and Internships
The program will include professional internships focused on blockchain projects, allowing students to engage directly with real-world applications of the technology.
Online Solidity Course
In addition to the in-school program, the ETH Kipu Foundation is rolling out an online Solidity course for 500 students aged 18 and older. The course aims to train participants in Ethereum development and integrating applications with local businesses.
Teacher Training
To ensure the success of the initiative, the ETH Kipu Foundation is also focusing on training 30 teachers through a “hybrid training” program, equipping them with the necessary skills to effectively teach Ethereum and blockchain concepts.
The focus is currently on Buenos Aires, but there is potential for the initiative to expand to other regions in Argentina, reflecting the city's progressive stance towards cryptocurrency.
