    The questions that come before the decision.

    Anything not answered here, someone from the faculty will answer — not a sales desk.

    What happens when I register?

    Before the public launch, you receive the terms, cohort dates and seat allocations by email. Only then do you decide whether to enrol. Registering costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

    Who issues the certificate?

    The Clue Education Platform Ltd, based at the Innovation Hub in the DIFC, Dubai. Every certificate carries a unique ID, and participation and exam results are documented for each person.

    Who is the flagship certification for?

    The Certified Digital Asset Professional is built for client advisory, compliance and AML, risk, product management, audit and senior management. The foundation module ahead of it is for all employees.

    How does the learning actually work?

    Microlearning with short expert videos of one to four minutes, flashcards, knowledge checks and practical exercises. A module quiz unlocks the next module.

    Which regulation does the curriculum cover?

    The curriculum covers international regulation from the EU to the UAE, UK, Switzerland, the US and Asia.

    How is it assessed, and what do you get?

    A case study — an institution launches a crypto offering, covering product, custody, regulation, AML, risk and roadmap — and an exam of 60 questions drawn from a pool of 200+. The certificate carries an ID, and an annual refresher keeps the qualification current.

    Can we bring in our own policies and processes?

    Yes, through path 2. We then write the content against your policies, processes and third-party providers, and reshoot the learning videos in your own context.

    When does it start and what does it cost?

    The modules are released step by step from January 2027. The presale opens on 1 November 2026 — those on the list hear the terms, the cohort dates and the available places before anyone else.

    What is in the foundation module?

    Blockchain, Bitcoin and Ethereum, types of crypto assets, custody, risks and the regulatory framework — in six units. It counts in full towards the flagship certification.
