Our training approach
To address the challenges of the evolving crypto market, blockchain training must adopt a more professional approach akin to that of pilots and cyber investigators. This entails embracing professional pedagogical methods, crafting appropriate tools and metrics, and assembling dedicated teams poised to deliver comprehensive training services.
We're reshaping the paradigm of blockchain investigation training by emphasizing the importance of Continuous Skill Enhancement and
Maintaining Operational Competence
Our approach adheres to the following key principles:
Emphasis on Knowledge
Our courses and other training activities prioritize building a strong knowledge foundation, resulting in longer and more in-depth courses than the industry standard.
Comprehensive Training
In order to achieve desired investigative results, professional training must address the entire organizational investigative chain and for its entire life-cycle.
Technological agnosticism
We believe that tech tools only supplement great professionals. Therefore, our training services have no affinity to specific tech tools.
'Micro training' & 'Personalization'
Each trainee is different and requires a tailored training suite. We stress on specific skills, tasks and sub-tasks to accommodate each trainee specifically.
