Tether (USDT) Collaborates with Taipei Tech to Advance Blockchain Education

Tether, the largest company in the cryptocurrency industry, has announced a new initiative aimed at enhancing blockchain and digital asset education in Taiwan. The company is partnering with the National Taipei University of Technology (NTUT), also known as Taipei Tech, to develop comprehensive educational programs that will equip students with the necessary skills and knowledge in this rapidly evolving field, according to Tether.

Educational Program Details

The “Blockchain & Digital Asset” education program was initially launched at NTUT's College of Management, attracting over 110 students. The course quickly gained popularity, prompting other universities to consider similar collaborations with Tether. The program covers a wide range of topics including blockchain technology, digital assets, Bitcoin, and stablecoins, with a focus on providing both technical and business perspectives.

Through this partnership, Tether will utilize its expertise to advance academic programs and research initiatives. The curriculum will build on the successful course materials developed for NTUT, enriched with insights from industry experts. The program aims to prepare students for responsible and informed participation in the blockchain sector, addressing the following key areas:

1. Fundamental Knowledge of Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies: Comprehensive education on the basics of blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
2. Critical Thinking Development: Cultivating the ability to analyze and assess the authenticity of cryptocurrency information.
3. Risk Awareness and Investment Principles: Emphasizing the high-risk nature of cryptocurrencies and promoting rational investment principles.
4. Legal and Regulatory Education: Understanding regulatory policies and the importance of compliance.
5. Industry Insights and Career Prospects: Gaining firsthand industry perspectives from professionals.

Support and Expansion

Over the past two years, Tether and local organizations have sponsored over 30 students and professors to attend the prestigious Plan B summer school in Lugano. This year, Tether supported an additional 15 students and professors to participate in the Plan B Business School. These selected professors will utilize their newfound knowledge to create tailored course materials for the upcoming semesters.

“Tether’s education initiative aligns seamlessly with the visions of these universities to empower their students with the knowledge and technical skills to boost the adoption of digital assets in Taiwan,” said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether. “By focusing on comprehensive knowledge, Tether aims to work hand-in-hand with these prestigious universities to empower the next generation of blockchain professionals in the region.”
