E-learning has become increasingly relevant in today’s world due to the convenience and flexibility it provides. It allows individuals to access education from anywhere at any time. This makes it an ideal solution for busy professionals and students who have demanding schedules. It also eliminates the high cost of traditional student learning. A notable event that is grabbing everyone’s attention in the e-learning domain is the launch of an educational marketplace powered by NFTs by Flare and Uppercent.

Flare and Uppercent introduces an NFT Marketplace for E-learning

The interoperable blockchain Flare has recently partnered with ed-tech startup Uppercent to launch an ambitious project that will take the form of an NFT marketplace. This one will be an educational marketplace powered by non-fungible tokens issued on Flare. These NFTs will be used as access passes for high-quality courses provided by the top 1% of the world’s achievers.

The Uppercent platform allows members to buy, sell, and trade access passes to exclusive courses from Uppercent instructors coming from varied educational and professional backgrounds. The list includes a mix of social media stars, leading business and mindset trainers, and Forbes’ 30 Under 30 entrepreneurs. The lessons consist of what they have learned on their journey to the top, which will cover entrepreneurship, mindset, social media, and other vocational skills.

The platform will be launched in phases, with the first courses and instructors set to commence in late March. Phase one will allow students to log in to their accounts and register for upcoming courses. The official platform launch is scheduled for later this year, after which users will be able to buy and sell access passes to the courses.

According to Flare Co-Founder and CEO, Hugo Philion, Flare is looking forward to enabling the Uppercent team to use its technology to push the boundaries of UX and utility in the online education market. The sentiment was echoed by Uppercent Founder & CEO, Jake Lee, who believes that the partnership will take e-learning from Web 2 to Web 3 and rebuild the e-learning ecosystem.
