Solana Blockchain Training for Columbia Blockchain Club

​​The Solana Foundation is inviting Columbia students to a 4-day Solana blockchain training session.

The training covers cryptography fundamentals, blockchain, and Solana from the ground up, with frequent hands-on labs. By the end of the training, attendees will be able to create and transfer tokens, mint NFTs, and build on-chain applications on Solana, the fastest, cheapest, and most scalable blockchain.

​The training is aimed at any existing web developer. You'll need to know TypeScript, but you don't need prior cryptography or blockchain experience.

This training is free of charge, and a catered lunch is provided daily.

Requirements:
- The training is available to all currently enrolled Columbia students
- Experience programming in a strictly typed language, e.g. TypeScript. 
- This is a hands-on course, so you'll need a laptop. Mac or Linux are great, Windows is fine too but you must have WSL2 and Microsoft Terminal installed.

We're expecting a significant demand for this course, so we've added a few questions during registration. Registering does not guarantee acceptance into the training. If you're accepted, we'll see you there!
