What is blockchain architect
Introduction to Certified Blockchain Architect™ | Blockchain Council
hi everyone welcome to the introduction
to certified blockchain architect course
this course is designed to give you an
expert understanding along with
practical applications of the blockchain
domain this course will also help you
architecting your blockchain solutions
so what is certified blockchain
architect training or CB a CB a training
entitles you to utilize your expertise
to make important decisions related to
blockchain projects and to craft the
guidelines and structure of the whole
blockchain system considering the
requirement of the system a certified
blockchain architect is a skilled
professional who understands and knows
deeply what is blockchain and how
blockchain works and also uses the same
knowledge to build blockchain based
applications for enterprises and
businesses the CBA credential certifies
individuals in the blockchain discipline
of distributed ledger technology from a
vendor neutral perspective so we do not
talk about any specific technology or
promote them unless they have any
specific feature which is useful for any
research work and the blockchain work
the certified blockchain expert is
exhaustive training and exam based
program aims to provide proof of
knowledge to the certificate holder in
the blockchain space alright so when
we're developing the structure of the
course it's important to look at the
purpose of the course the purpose is to
establish and govern the minimum
standards for credentialing the
blockchain architect specializes in the
enterprise development measures inform
the public that credential individuals
meet or exceed the minimum standards
reinforce the blockchain expertise as a
unique and self-regulating profession if
you're looking for proving your skills
to the potential employers and research
projects we think that's
right purpose of the certified
blockchain architect for whom this
certification is well this course is
most relevant for software engineers and
architects application architects
programmers and developers because of
the technical nature of the course
software engineering and architects can
use this course to build blockchain
applications for their company in
offices application architects can get
an understanding of how the blockchain
application works so that they can
architect their applications the course
will also be beneficial for engineering
and management students who want to
understand how the whole thing works and
how this can benefit them with their
projects additionally a university
professor can use this to teach other
students and transfer their knowledge
from this certification to them in the
classroom operation head and business
want to learn how operations can be
optimized utilizing the blockchain or if
the blockchain is the right fit for them
or not
additionally senior government officials
can benefit from this course if they
want to understand how the government
can solve real-world organizational
problems using the blockchain technology
apart from that security professional or
administrator who wants to know how the
whole security architecture of the
blockchain work how the blockchain can
work securing the data and other
transactions easily even venture
capitalists angel and seed investors can
benefit from this course if they're
looking to invest in the blockchain
based startups and want to understand
how to define blockchain architecture
the benefit of this course the best
advantage of doing this certification
can get you hired easily because
nowadays many companies are looking to
integrate blockchain services in their
companies and this course will help you
learn the fundamentals of
he commonly used blockchain solutions it
is the right certification for you to
understand the underlying understanding
and gain the basic knowledge of the
blockchain to prove it during the
interview grasp the deep understanding
of blockchain and how it works
implement your skills to any blockchain
projects build your own blockchain
business with acquired knowledge if you
want to if you are a founder looking for
an idea then blockchain is the best way
to grow your business so what are the
requirements for taking this course
since this is a course about designing a
network architecture it would help if
you all have a basic knowledge of
computer science for instance knowledge
about how computer works how networking
works and other basic information about
web services you don't need an in-depth
advanced knowledge of these concepts and
we'll go over the concepts that will be
relevant to the course it would also
help to have awareness of crypto
currencies like Bitcoin etherium etc but
don't worry if you're new to some of
these concepts as we'll cover the parts
that will be relevant to the course you
must be motivated enough to learn the
blockchain deeply because that'll be
useful for you to successfully complete
this course a little bit of background
in programming and software development
will undoubtedly come in handy for
better comprehending the concepts
described in the course so there will be
around 8 hours of total training after
that there will be one hour of the exam
the exam will contain 45 questions which
you have to answer and you have to cross
the minimal threshold to get the
certification again the exam will be a
hundred marks you have to acquire 60
plus marks to clear the exam and if you
fail the exam you can retake the exam
after one day total three attempts are
allowed be
on three attempts if you failed to
acquire 60-plus marks even after three
attempts you would need to contact the
blockchain council team to have manual
assistance for clearing the exam this is
how the certificate will look like the
whole certificate the certificate will
be online verifiable on our blockchain
council website so anybody can search
for you and give you some projects if
they have some tasks they can reach out
to you from our websites this will be
the course content we will go through
the introduction first and then we will
understand what blockchain is how it
works and why blockchain is essential
then we'll jump into the understanding
of how and why it is better than the
traditional technology why you should
compare and how you should compare then
we'll answer the question of whether
blockchain is a Magic Bullet to all of
the business problems and also look at
how blockchain decisions are made then
we will go into different technologies
and programming languages that can be
used to architect blockchain
applications along with cryptography and
blockchain algorithms from there we'll
go on to looking at different kinds of
block chains such as private and public
block chains and permissioned versus
permissionless blockchain and cloud
versus native block chains next we will
learn about the different ways to
develop our own network nodes including
functional risks how to solve scaling
issues on chain vs off chain using
lighting network the cocoa framework
smart contracts and Oracle's will then
cover the business aspect of blockchain
using stakeholders in different types of
block chains then we'll move on to the
different technical components that make
up a block chain including ledger smart
contracts peers and protocols then
be ready to move to the main sections
about architecting and your own
blockchain solution we'll look at some
of the best practices to employ when
analyzing requirements and translating
them into functions after we have aptly
identified the requirements and
functions we can start building our
blockchain application by translating
stakeholders into nodes which can be
used to manage the network we can give
privileges to certain nodes and define
roles for the different types of nodes
we would also need to define development
resources that is the different
programming frameworks and programming
languages that will be used for
development finally we'll be moving on
to actual development and hosting then
for concluding we'll end by looking at
security issues in implementing
blockchain solutions including legal and
governmental regulations and the hurdles
faced by new entrants in the blockchain
space we'll also be taking a look at
some of the ways to mitigate the
enterprise operational and market risk
for blockades
