Overview
Blockchain has plenty of talk around it and comparatively few developers who can actually ship a working decentralised application. This course is aimed squarely at closing that gap on one of the faster, more practical platforms in the space.
It gives software developers the core knowledge and hands-on skill to build decentralised applications on Algorand. You start with the fundamentals of blockchain itself, then move into what makes Algorand distinctive: its pure proof of stake consensus mechanism, its transaction model, and how smart contracts work on the platform. From there it becomes practical, working with the Algorand developer environment, PyTeal and Algorand Standard Assets to design, implement and deploy dApps.
Algorand is known for speed and security, and the ecosystem around it is still small enough that developers with real skill stand out. The course is delivered through video lessons, reading material, hands-on labs and case studies, so you finish with something you have built rather than something you have watched.
It maps to job roles including blockchain strategist, blockchain architect, core blockchain developer, blockchain app developer, blockchain test engineer and blockchain support analyst.
What you will learn
- The fundamental principles of blockchain technology and its core concepts
- Algorand’s pure proof of stake consensus mechanism and transaction model
- How smart contract functionality works on the Algorand platform
- PyTeal programming basics
- Data types and contract states for dApps in Algorand
- Introductory proficiency in designing, implementing and deploying decentralised applications
Prerequisites
The course is aimed at beginners in blockchain who want hands-on training in deploying dApps. Participants should already have:
- A working understanding of the basics of computing
- Programming experience in a high level language, Python being the most directly useful given the PyTeal content
Skills and tools
Algorand developer environment, PyTeal, Algorand Standard Assets, smart contract design and deployment, and decentralised application architecture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about the Algorand Blockchain Application Developer course.
The Algorand Blockchain Application Developer course is a hands-on programme designed to teach learners how to build decentralised applications on the Algorand blockchain. It covers blockchain fundamentals, Algorand architecture, smart contracts, PyTeal and practical dApp development.
The course is suitable for beginners in blockchain who want hands-on experience developing and deploying decentralised applications. It is particularly useful for developers who already have some programming experience and want to explore blockchain application development.
You will learn blockchain fundamentals, Algorand's Pure Proof of Stake consensus mechanism, its transaction model, smart contract functionality, PyTeal programming, contract states and the process of designing, implementing and deploying decentralised applications.
Yes. PyTeal is included as an important part of the course. Learners are introduced to PyTeal programming and use it while learning how smart contract logic and decentralised applications are developed for the Algorand platform.
Participants should have a working understanding of basic computing and some programming experience in a high-level language. Python experience is particularly useful because the course includes PyTeal-based development.
Yes. The course combines learning material with hands-on labs and case studies. Learners work with the Algorand developer environment, PyTeal and Algorand Standard Assets while developing practical skills for designing, implementing and deploying dApps.
The course covers the Algorand developer environment, PyTeal, Algorand Standard Assets, smart contract design and deployment, decentralised application architecture and Algorand's Pure Proof of Stake model.
The course has a duration of one day, approximately 9.5 hours. It is designed as a focused learning programme covering both blockchain concepts and practical Algorand application development.
Yes. The course is listed as an online programme and includes video lessons, reading material, hands-on labs and case studies to support practical blockchain learning.
Learners receive a certificate of participation after completing the course. To earn the industry-recognised NASSCOM certification, learners must separately clear the SSC NASSCOM assessment. The assessment must be started within the applicable 90-day window from payment.
