Transfero Swiss, a blockchain solutions company founded by Brazilians, announced a selection process to form a new class of students who will start on June 6th to receive the company’s training program content, through its professional training arm, the Transfero Academy, for six months. To Cointelegraph Brasil, the company informed that there is currently a class of 15 students in the training process and that the number of vacancies to be made available for the next class will be announced in the coming days.
Interested parties need to apply by the end of May through the link provided by Transfero Academy, which listed as minimum requirements: complete high school; age from 18 years; full dedication to the course; residency in the state of Rio de Janeiro, where the course will be taught.
The training, which provides a scholarship of BRL 1,000 and a benefits card of BRL 1,000, will consist of programming languages ​​(Python, C#/.Net, React, Solidity and Rust), Big Data, Data Analysis , task automation, DevOps, blockchain, financial education, economics and accounting.
According to what has been disclosed by the Transfero Academy, after completing the course, graduates will participate in interviews at Grupo Transfero and at partner companies with the aim of hiring all developers who have gone through the program, whose objective is to train, at least, 100 people by the end of 2022.
The Transfero Academy, whose activities officially started in February, signals a certain need found by companies in the sector in relation to labor. Which is not an isolated case, so much so that the Safra Bank, for example, launched in April a free financial education course with focus on Bitcoin (BTC) and other digital asset investments.
At the end of April, Sebrae also launched a free online event about integration of cryptocurrencies into business, with the objective of empowering micro and small enterprises in relation to the digital transformation scenario, as reported by the Cointelegraph Brazil.
