Who is it for?
The Certified Algorand Developer course is for developers who want to demonstrate their ability to manage the end-to-end application lifecycle, including developing, packaging, and deploying Algorand applications or Smart Contracts. In addition, this course enables developers to build state-of-the-art application features using Algorand software development kits (SDKs) and Developer Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).
What it Demonstrates
A Certified Algorand Developer demonstrates the knowledge to develop and maintain Algorand Distributed Applications (DApps), client applications, and Smart Contracts. The Certification credential verifies the skills and knowledge of Algorand use cases, the Algorand Development Ecosystem that includes DApps, Smart Contracts, and features using the latest Algorand APIs, SDKs and development model. A developer must also be able to:
- Build and configure a development environment.
- Develop and build Algorand applications, Smart Contracts, and other applications using Algorand SDKs and APIs.
- Complete the end-to-end application lifecycle, i.e., build, test deploy and maintain applications.
- Develop, build, deploy an Algorand application using one of the many Algorand SDKs.
- Passing a high integrity exam demonstrates the candidate’s ability to perform challenging real-world tasks under time constraints and your extensive Algorand skills and understanding.
