Aprilynne Alter
Lead Instructor
Aprilynne started her Web3 journey last year, and since then has educated over a million people on NFTs through her YouTube channel.
Over the course of just a few months, she quickly rose from knowing nothing about Web3 to being called in to advise venture-backed NFT projects.
Getting into the Web3 space has allowed Aprilynne to quit her full-time job, make lifelong connections, and live a life she absolutely adores, and she's made it her mission to help others achieve the same.
That's why she's co-created this course, distilling 6 months of learning into a compact 2-week crash course where you'll experience 1-on-1 interaction, direct feedback, hands-on learning, and a face-to-face learning experience.
She's ready to help you master Web3 essentials and get a head start on building a life and career you love.
Jamie Rawsthorne
Course Facilitator
Jamie co-created one of the fastest growing YouTube channels in the UK, The Zac and Jay Show (930k subs). But after falling out of love with content creation, he started to explore other options.
After seeing intelligent friends in the Web3 space, he started doing research of his own. He quickly realized, however, how overwhelming and difficult this was. There was so much noise, technical jargon, and self-promotion. He didn't know who to trust.
He knew he wasn’t alone in this experience, so he set out to find a Web3 expert who could create a world-class course, teaching him and others like him the fundamentals and opportunities within the Web3 space without the noise.
After interviewing 50 experts in the space, choosing Aprilynne was a no brainer. Over the past few months, the two of them have worked to create an educational program that’s engaging, highly compact and outcome-focused.
Jamie's proud to finally release it and make profiting from the Web3 space accessible to all.
