01 / A DIFFERENT KIND OF ACADEMY
Don't just learn it.
Show what you did.
An education experience built around practical skills, verifiable results, and technologies being used to solve real problems.
Planned hands-on labs
Proposed activities cover transactions, digital signatures, AI workflows, linked-record models, and signed-record checks. Lab availability has not been announced.
Keep a record of your work
Keep a record of what you built and answered, so others can check the work itself.

ADVANCED RESEARCH↗
05 / BACKGROUND
Background,
not a requirement.
SmartLedger builds or has built technology in these areas. Some courses may refer to it as background; no course requires it.
Lab access to any SmartLedger technology is planned and not yet available. Studying a technology never requires buying it: no course depends on a product purchase.
06 / HANDS-ON LEARNING
Less theory alone.
More doing.
Learning becomes real when you can test an idea, inspect the result, and explain why it works.
↗ Construct and inspect blockchain transactions
↗ Create signed, hashed records
↗ Model ledger records for made-up items
↗ Record and check AI agent runs
$ node 04-cross-signing.js ✓ signature valid for the stated key ✓ hashes match the recorded events // Illustrative only. These checks do not establish who holds the key, // that the record is complete, or that its contents are true. Checks passed (toy example)
07 / FOR INSTITUTIONS & RESEARCHERS
Two programs
built to go deeper.
PROPOSED DIVISION
