The Argentine Ministry of Education has announced a collaboration with the ETH Kipu Foundation to incorporate Ethereum and blockchain technology into high school curricula in Buenos Aires.
This new program aims to provide students with skills relevant to the growing tech sector and position Argentina as a leader in blockchain education within Latin America.
Starting August 27, students will have the opportunity to participate in blockchain-related internships and take an online Solidity course designed for those aged 18 and older.
This course will teach them how to develop decentralized applications on Ethereum.
To ensure effective delivery, 30 educators in Buenos Aires will be trained to teach these subjects.
This initiative is part of a broader global trend towards integrating blockchain education into school systems, with similar efforts seen in other regions, such as El Salvador’s Bitcoin training for public employees.
