The Blockchain Expert Conference is the premier event in Israel’s blockchain ecosystem — and also marks the grand finale of the Blockchain Expert course by Blockchain & Digital Currencies College, a brand by the Israeli Center for Blockchain and Crypto.
This is the closest program to a bachelor’s degree in blockchain — both in Israel and globally — and the only one officially accredited in Israel.
Hundreds of graduates will attend the conference — some already active in the industry, others aspiring to join — and will receive their official certification from the by the Israeli Chamber of Information Technologies in a special ceremony.
As part of the event, many will also participate in the job fair and interview for roles in the industry. In fact, over 50% of program graduates who aimed to find a job in the field succeeded in doing so, thanks to the support and connections provided by the program and its faculty.
Our students and alumni include senior regulators, department heads in law enforcement and security agencies, lawyers and accountants from top firms, banking and credit company professionals, and blockchain companies training their own employees.
