Kingsland University — School of Blockchain is more than a world-class blockchain education program. It’s also a foster parent to innovation. Beyond the classroom walls of our immersive blockchain course, coding academy, and executive education programs, we have established an Incubator Accelerator (IA) program to nurture excellence. Here’s what we mean:

The IA program serves to fulfil a key component of Kingsland’s mission to ensure the future of blockchain by offering mentorship and development support for innovative startups and projects in the blockchain sector.

And we found just the right project to help us launch this integral facet of Kingsland’s mission.

Disciplina bears the accolade of being the inaugural blockchain project to enter Kingsland’s Incubator Accelerator (IA) program. As the first blockchain for recruiting and education, Disciplina is working to create verified personal profiles based on academic and professional achievements that can be shared among institutions via blockchain.

“When it came to identifying the first project for our Incubator Accelerator, Disciplina easily stood out as the ideal candidate,” said Jason King, Kingsland — School of Blockchain co-founder. “Their team has the skill to backup their enthusiasm and it’s a privilege to reward that passion — especially for a project that has the potential to turn academia on its head.”

Naturally, this partnership between two companies at the intersection of blockchain and education comes as a source of pride for everyone involved.

“It’s an honor to align with Kingsland University,” said Ilya Nikiforov, Disciplina co-founder. “To be recognized as an innovative project is fulfilling to our entire team and with support from Kingsland’s Incubator Accelerator program, we can continue to deliver on our promises to the blockchain industry.”

And we think they’ll do just fine making good on those promises because they have a history of doing just that.

Disciplina is a product of TeachMePlease, a program providing an aggregate of academic courses, methods, and mediums from all over the world to connect students with their ideal educational experience. Ever still more promising: Disciplina was engineered by former developers for Cardano, a smart contract platform celebrated for its scalability, intricacy and secure architecture.

Bringing Disciplina into the Kingsland fold is also an exciting reflection of what we’ve quickly accomplished, something that comes largely from your belief in our aims.

“We’ve seen enormous support for Kingsland over the past few months; the industry’s confidence in our mission demonstrates deep alignment with the blockchain ecosystem. The Incubator Accelerator is part of giving back to that ecosystem,” said John Souza, Kingsland — School of Blockchain co-founder and CEO.

Souza continues by acknowledging that this partnership signals amazing things still yet to come:

“Disciplina’s an exciting project that’s challenging the status quo in education and we’re thrilled to have them in Kingsland’s Incubator Accelerator program. We look forward to this being the first of many projects that we can support as we continue to grow our programs.”
