Dealer Market Exchange officially launched DMX University training and announced a $ 150,000 scholarship fund to support the formation of 100 blockchain developer resources in Puerto Rico. If DMX University were to succeed, Puerto Rico could become one of the highest concentrations of blockchain developer talent in the world today.
Under the leadership of DMX Foundry, a business blockchain and AI innovation lab under DMX, a new DMX University online program consisting of multiple levels of training, from beginner to expert, will be launched at the start of next year.
We believe that Puerto Rico is one of the unrecognized and neglected resources for technological talent in America, said Jason Bennick, CEO and co-founder of DMX, President of the University and residing in Puerto Rico since 2016. From hurricane Mary, we have seen many highly qualified resources leave the island for more opportunities. Our goal is to reverse it by offering a career path for qualified talent to stay here in Puerto Rico, increase their skills and take advantage of our program to build a local and profitable career as a blockchain developer.
The DMX University Program Director, Omar González, from Puerto Rico and Hyperledger Certified Expert, says the program will consist of 4 levels, with the ultimate goal of having a pool of potential talent potential from DMX, reportedly to some of the most competitive payment rates found anywhere in the United States.
Hyperledger is a conglomerate of open source blockchain projects and tools focused on creating efficient and decentralized transactional applications. They have received support from leaders in the financial, banking, supply chain, manufacturing, Internet of Things and technology industries, including companies known as Intel, IBM and SAP, among others.
González explains that each level of training was designed as a multi-level program to reach the level of experts in the development of the Hyperledger software; one of the most sought-after development skills in blockchain.
The training program will accept beginners and seasoned candidates alike. The University intends to reward 100 qualified candidates with fully funded scholarships to become Hyperchager Blockchain Certified by DMX University.
Twenty graduates will be selected for a further training opportunity; up to ten graduates of whom are destined to be part of the pool of candidates who can be offered positions within DMX at the end of their studies.
All graduates of the program will be invited to participate in the DMX university partnership program, where directional support will be provided for placement with DMX affiliates and partners looking for qualified graduates.
We want to see Puerto Rico get up again. It does not matter what you do; everyone wants to enter. This program is just that, a way to present and provide developers with new sets of skills that can benefit developers, DMX and the whole Puerto Rico, said Omar González. He went on to say We have a great talent here on the island. So if we can combine their creativity with our program, we believe the possibilities are endless.
The DMX university is scheduled for April 1, 2019 and, it is said, will be the first institution created in Puerto Rico to provide a new technology training program for the benefit of both private and government sectors.
Although space will be limited, DMX University will be open to developers in all industries. More information can be found on their dmx.io website.
