IIB Council appoints ClickAcademy Asia as exclusive distributor for The Certified Blockchain Professional Programme

BRUSSELS, Belgium, 2018-Aug-15 — /EPR Network/ — Council has appointed ClickAcademy Asia as exclusive distributor for its Certified Blockchain Professional Programme in Singapore. The IIB Council (Institute of iBusiness Council) is a division of International Council of E-Commerce Consultants, also known as EC-Council, one of the world’s largest cyber security technical certification bodies.

The Certified Blockchain Professional Programme, launching in Singapore in September 2018, aims to bring practitioners up to speed with the industry requirements while forming the global standards in the Blockchain Professional Skillset Industry, one of the fastest growing disciplines. The CBP course consists of three knowledge and competency areas in Blockchain Technology: Development, Implementation and Strategy. The course can be attended by developers, coders and programmers for a full 5 days training that will grant them access to CBP exams and the chance to obtain the global certification while policy makers and business executives can attend two-days training on Blockchain Strategy and Commercialization.

The course provides a 100% hands-on thorough overview of blockchain technology and its real-world implementation. During the CBP course students will be immersed also to a Sustainable, Scalable and Secure Blockchain Development Framework using Quantum Computing that aims to address industry mass adoption issues.

ClickAcademy Asia’s Managing Director, Jefrey Gomez said, “We are thrilled to be appointed the exclusive distributorship for IIB Council’s Certified Blockchain Professional programme in Singapore. Singapore has a conducive landscape for cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology to flourish due to its superb communications network, its global reputation as a financial hub, non-interference by regulators, and growing interest in FinTech. According to TechCrunch in February this year, there is a huge demand and ready capital to support blockchain talent. Blockchain-related jobs are the second-fastest growing in today’s labour market with only one qualified blockchain developer for every 14 job openings. However, there is a dearth of proper education on how blockchain works or its potential applications, not just in finance, but in areas like supply chain, government, medicine and education. The Certified Blockchain Professional programme aims to fill the knowledge and the skills gaps in the blockchain industry.”

IIB Council CEO, Jay Bavisi, said, “The IIB Council was created to train and certify business professionals on knowledge, technical and digital skills that are highly demanded in the job market. ClickAcademy Asia shares the same purpose and has helped thousands of professional talents upgrade their skills for many years. We trust that they will work well with industry partners to ensure that professionals in blockchain have the right frameworks, knowledge and skills to build sustainable and scalable blockchain infrastructures for their organisations.”
