According to analysts, the creation of a blockchain in 2009 has laid the foundation for new technological revolution. They say that blockchain will change not only the industry of financial services but also all other spheres of business to unrecognizability over time.
Today the world was divided into 2 parts. The first part continues to fight on maintaining habitual lifestyle and with mistrust looks at new technologies. The second half is perplexed why still there are people who doubt that application of Blockchain can significantly improve many spheres of our life.
Every week in the world new scenarios of use of a blockchain appear: in one country test registration of the landed property, in others, banks are ready to open accounts in bitcoins, in the third, legalize cross-border bitcoin translations, or investigates possibilities of a blockchain in the fight against global warming. Even the company "Delivery of Pizza" has understood, has approved and has begun to accept for payment bitcoins.

And still, why the technology a blockchain draws attention? I allocate several key moments which will help you to understand what the basis the trust to this technology:

• Transparency. The possibility of sharing and transparency of actions can't but attract the large commercial and government organizations tired of the "shadow" party of business.
• Reliability. It is almost impossible to change or forge the records entered in the register a blockchain. This circumstance considerably reduces the probability of fraud and strengthens confidence in the authenticity of data.
• Lack of a human factor. As I have already mentioned in the first point, a peer algorithm of reaching consensus, record, and verification of transactions happen is transparent also without the involvement of the third, fourth, fifth and tenth parties. It helps to avoid undesirable mistakes, additional expenses, and the general working difficulties.
• Interaction. Thanks to a blockchain, completion of one operation can automatically start initialization of others. It allows different participants to be involved without excess risk in transactions with multiple dependencies or in the transactions started by other parties;
• Safety. The system a blockchain ensures safety and confidentiality of transactions for 100%. It is reached by basing it on the protocol which uses cryptography system with open and closed by keys. Participants can create open public registers or the controlled closed blockchains, use of which will be limited to a certain circle of people.
  Thanks to it, each year scope the blockchain growing like an avalanche: new startups, appear
  new technologies, and products on the basis of blockchain are started, even the largest world companies will be connected to a blockchain-race.
  
  
  

Despite the apparent importance of blockchain technology, firms are facing a serious problem getting qualified personnel that can work in their firms. Already there is a hiring crunch as many businesses try to find people with the qualifications to work on their blockchain platforms. Already, many professional firms like Deloitte, PwC, and KMPG are trying to get employees who can work in this area of expertise. They have slots for thousands of experts worldwide, but the number of qualified individuals is quite limited.
At the moment experts believe that there are only 20,000 blockchain developers with the necessary skills. As more companies adopt blockchain technology, more firms are looking for blockchain developers to help develop and maintain their platforms.
Since blockchain technology is an emerging technology, there are no colleges that provide a formal education. Most of those in the field are enthusiasts who already have a background in technology. However, anyone can become a blockchain engineer with the required skills. Before universities develop the comprehensive curriculum that can train students, there will be a gap in the impartation of knowledge on blockchains. Additionally, blockchain technology is ever evolving. New advancements are being created, new blockchain designs are being developed, and more applications are being discovered. Therefore, even those who are already in the blockchain field need to continually increase their knowledge base as new things are being developed.

Extra Credit is a platform that seeks to solve the lack of skilled talent in the blockchain industry by providing a platform where students of all ages can start learning about Cryptocurrency. The training offered simply an overview of blockchain technology with in-depth courses that put students on the track to become future blockchain engineers. The variety is important because students have different needs. Those in management who want to learn about how to work with blockchain based businesses can take simple courses geared towards blockchain for business while those who want to get skills in blockchain engineering follow a different set of courses.
I hope, you were convinced that a blockchain training, not a whim, but the urgent need.
