Intermediate level Blockchain and Web3 Engineering

Tokens, Testing and dApps

Write production-style Solidity: storage, inheritance and custom errors, then test with Hardhat, build ERC-20, ERC-721 and staking contracts with OpenZeppelin, learn gas and design patterns, build a dApp front end with ethers.js and deploy and verify to a public test network.

At a glance

Who it is for

Developers who have written a few simple contracts and want to build real, well-tested smart contracts and the web applications that use them.

Before you start

The beginner programme in this track or equivalent: wallets, gas, Remix, basic Solidity (state variables, functions, require, events). JavaScript fluency (async and await, modules) and Node.js 18 or newer are needed for tooling and the front end.

How you finish

Pass the quizzes and labs, then submit a capstone project. The NIBVEDA team reviews it and either accepts it or sends it back with comments you can act on.

What you will be able to do

  1. 01Write clear Solidity using custom errors, events, modifiers, inheritance and interfaces and understand storage, memory and calldata
  2. 02Set up Hardhat and write thorough automated tests including reverts, events, time travel and gas reports
  3. 03Build ERC-20, ERC-721 and a staking contract on audited OpenZeppelin building blocks
  4. 04Apply pull-payment, factory, access-control and gas-saving patterns
  5. 05Build and deploy a dApp with ethers.js, verify it on a block explorer and operate it safely

Before you enrol

Quick answers.

The policies have the full detail.

Is this a real internship?

It is a virtual internship programme: a structured, self-paced course built around a real project, with checked assessments and a certificate. It is not employment, it does not carry a stipend and it is not an academic or AICTE-approved qualification. What it gives you is verified, project-based evidence of skills.

How does self-paced work?

You start when you like and move at your own speed. Each part unlocks when you finish the one before it. There are no live classes and no deadlines. Your access is shown on each programme page.

How is my work checked?

Quizzes are marked as soon as you submit them. Labs use a tick-list of tasks. Intermediate and Expert programmes finish with a capstone that the NIBVEDA team reviews and either accepts or sends back with comments.

Can I get a refund?

Please read the refund policy before you buy. It explains when a refund is possible.
