This training program is designed to accelerate your understanding of Mojaloop and encourage informed advocacy. Our goal is to advance Mojaloop’s adoption and use it to drive financial inclusion.
If you are interested in learning more about Mojaloop and build expertise to help contribute to this open-source platform, then you are in the right place.
Value of Mojaloop Training Program
Implementers can freely use the core code, join the community, and build inclusive, real-time payment systems to help support the Mojaloop Foundation’s mission of providing universal financial inclusion to all. However, understanding these transformations can be difficult, and implementing them can be challenging. The purpose of the Mojaloop Training Program is to accelerate learning for operators and participants to scale the adoption and use of Mojaloop securely.
Training Program’s Intended Audience
This training program is designed for a broad audience, as there is a course for everyone, even if you are trying to understand Mojaloop. However, we have developed this program with two main groups in mind:
Hub Operators: i.e., organizations that run payment systems and the technology providers that support them. We have courses to help you accelerate your team’s ability to securely deploy, configure, and operate the Mojaloop platform for the market.
Financial Institutions: i.e., banks, credit unions, mobile money operators, microfinance organizations, their technology partners, and system integrators. We have courses that cover the best practices for onboarding, integrating, and connecting securely to Mojaloop.
