Certified Hedera Hashgraph Developer

Become a Hedera Hashgraph Developer

Hedera is a fully open source, proof-of-stake, public network and governing body for building and deploying decentralized applications. It offers developers three primary services: Solidity-based smart contracts, consensus, and token services. Hedera is unique in that it is incredibly fast, energy-efficient (carbon negative), and secure. These advantages can be attributed to its underlying hashgraph consensus algorithm.  A W3CB Certified Hedera Hashgraph developer course graduate demonstrates the knowledge to develop and maintain client applications using the latest Hedera programming model. This course also introduces you to the Smart Contracts service, which runs the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine).
