Hi Everyone! Does anybody know where I can find the Coursera MasterTrack Certificate looks like? I am interested in Duke University's MasterTracker Certificate in Blockchain Application and University of Chicago's MasterTrack Certificate in Machine Learning for Analytics. I am interested in these two areas because I might want to change my career focus. Thanks
Don't take my advice on this (i.e. not my subject area) but blockchain seems to be a bit of a fad. Definitely has supply chain and some limited accounted applications, but not as secure or transformative as some hope. Machine learning seems to have legs. To be honest, ask yourself this, which has the greatest potential to replace humans with technology?
Found this MIT Sloan 6-week blockchain (distance cert. course) if you're interested. People are making various predictions on the importance of blockchain. Dunno how good ANY are. None of 'em saw COVID-19 coming, I'll bet. ALL predictions can be sideswiped and often are. My definition: "The Future - that which is completely unpredictable." Two things most seem to agree on: (1) There are serious competing technologies. Nobody's sure which wins / is most useful (2) Most Blockchain startups will fail. (No surprise - new startups in ANYTHING have a high failure rate. I hope nobody gets paid for such a prediction!) The MIT Sloan course is here. I didn't check the cost. I believe they said it's 6 weeks and requires 6-8 hours per week.xecutive-education-online.mit.edu/presentations/lp/mit-blockchain-technologies-online-short-course/?ef_id=c:347183112899_d:c_n:g_ti:kwd-299955758398_p:_k:%2Bblockchain%20%2Btechnology_m:b_a:68767925012&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8cnQ8vTB7AIVzcDACh1rAgREEAMYASAAEgJSk_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
I would say from a technical standpoint that blockchain is still in the "inflated expectations" part of the hype cycle, but that ultimately we'll see it used for the things it's actually useful for.
Sorry - messed up the MIT Sloan link. Here it is: https://executive-education-online.mit.edu/presentations/lp/mit-blockchain-technologies-online-short-course/?ef_id=c:317279912298_d:c_n:g_ti:kwd-586088624858_p:_k:+sloan +blockchain +course_m:b_a:62211686334&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIua28xMHD7AIVAdvACh17jAKtEAAYASAAEgIcGPD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds There - it works!
I found not from those two, but the University of Illinois on education MT certificate. Here is another one! https://1up.infobox.nz/s/zfzCFA29m8wd7Ta#pdfviewer It is good that no CourseRA patches everywhere.
Thanks Johann, Blockchain - Duke University - $3,000 - MIT - $3,500 Artificial Intelligence - Oxford University - £2,350 - University of Chicago - $4,000
Interestingly, it states a Graduate certificate. I remember discussions about these MicroMasters and MasterTrack tm credentials not being the same as Graduate certificates. Nothing on the certificate that mentions Coursera? Is it even a Coursera course? I know that MasterTrack™ is a Coursera trademark? Just thinking aloud.
Actually they seem to be expensive for both certificates. Therefore I am utilizing Coursera's professional certificates (Free for Veterans). Then using these organizations for Industrial Certifications.

This gentleman has lot of EdX and Coursera's certificates, so I assumed he completed his University of Illinois UC through Coursera platform. URL: https://dal.nz/ https://1up.infobox.nz/s/zfzCFA29m8wd7Ta#pdfviewer
Blockchain technology is going to resolve the issues with INTEGRITY, such as eliminating the middle man. For this reason, many industries like Insurance, Finance, Supply Chain, Real Estate, and etc might oppose the product. For example, when you purchase a house, all the information in the smart contract and transaction, you do not need the title company and the realtors. Cybersecurity/Information Security resolves CONFIDENTIALITY Artificial Intelligence resolves AVAILABILITY I want to focus on these three.
How about an Indian uni? https://www.upgrad.com/blockchain-certification-pgc-iiitb/ It is about $1000 only, you get PG Certificate Or you can have both from Indian uni + UK uni? You'll obtain alumni status from IIIT Bangalore & LJMU. https://www.upgrad.com/software-engineering-mcs-ljmu/ $5999 You can have a bit of a discount, just PM me for the code if you want. Currently, I am enrolled in their PG Dip of Machine Learning and AI. It is from IIIT Bangalore too.
That's great! The IIITs are reputed to be the absolutely top schools in India for info-tech-related studies.
Not sure I agree; at least not in the short term. I've seen firms trying to selling blockchain for inter-company reconciliations (accounting within a company). The value proposition is that these are labor intensive but low risk activities; use block chain and fire people. I can see that working. I've heard of firms using blockchain for supply chain; I can charge you more for your bottle of wine because I can certify the vineyard. Still lot of skepticism on the finance side; HUGE financial risk and lack of trust that BC is as secure as it is being marketed.
