Blockchain Fintech Course (BFC) Overview

EC-Council’s blockchain certification courses are created for full-stack developers, business leaders, and fintech professionals. However, there are certain prerequisites. Basic knowledge of programming is required for the B|DC.

Blockchain developers and other professionals with blockchain expertise are expected to be in very high demand for at least the next 5–10 years, and the technology can potentially transform the way businesses operate.

Our recommended blockchain training path will take 3 months to complete if you can commit 10 hours of study time per week.

Yes. While there are many blockchain certifications, EC-Council’s expert-designed blockchain certification courses focus on the future of blockchain and how it intersects with other emerging technologies like AI, machine learning, and the IoT. These programs provide real-world experience for business leaders, fintech professionals, and developers to help them build successful careers in the blockchain industry.

It depends on the area of work in which you’re interested. For the B|BLC and B|FC certifications, which target business leaders and finance professionals, coding knowledge is not needed. Since the B|DC certification is intended for developers, B|DC candidates must have a computer science background, including knowledge of object-oriented programming, asynchronous JavaScript code, and front-end and back-end JavaScript web app development.

The average annual income for a blockchain developer based in the United States is USD 136,000, followed by USD 87,500 in Asia and USD 73,300 in Europe. Remote blockchain developers earn around USD 123,750 per year.[2]
