Steemit Crypto Academy is a project aimed at teaching newbies and existing steemains who know nothing or little about the world of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. Steemit crypto academy is designed to be the perfect destination for people who wish to gain insight into cryptocurrency and blockchain technology while generating rewards for the various assignments they do.

Steemit crypto Academy is an academy you have never seen before, one of the best things about this academy is that students are rewarded for the different tasks that they do. Unlike in our various colleges where we get to do loads of assignments with our degree as a reward at the end of the day. Steemit crypto Academy students perform assignments given by the professors, they get rated and rewarded in proportion to their effort.

Steemit crypto Academy is divide into 3 levels-Beginners courses, Intermediate courses,s, and Advanced courses.

Practical Steps you must take to Qualify during the break

We have talked about how steemit crypto academy is organized, now we will be talking about how you can qualify for the beginners level. I will explain practical steps and the easiest way to qualify and succeed in the next season.

• First thing every newbie must do is to complete their achievement 4 task. This is the first step since you can't even join the program if you are not achievement 4 verified. This break opens up the opportunity to complete your achievement tasks and continue.

• Have basic HTML markdown skills, in fact, that's the whole reason why students have to complete their achievement 4 task. Having a general markdown skill will help you work to stand out and look unique.

• Power up your SBD rewards from your achievement tasks, as a newbie or an inactive steemian who is active again, your main concern should be to cash out all your earnings, if you do so you may never progress to join the beginner's course which requires that users have a minimum of 125 steem power.

• Join active contests, when you join contests any of the two scenarios may play out Your posts get submitted to booming which improves your reputation because whenever you receive votes your rep increases or you receive steem rewards which you can power up to increase your steempower.

• Be active, and work hard, steemains who maintain a high level of activity are most likely to take advantage of opportunities open on the platform.

• Make posts on campus connect and maintain a high level of creativity and activity. Campus connect will support community members which will help them to grow their reputation.

• And when you finally qualify to join steemit crypto academy, you must improve your research abilities. Most of the courses you are going to take will be unfamiliar to you, so improving your research ability will help you to make better assignments.

• Follow the rules and never plagiarize. Making plagiarized tasks multiple times will see that you are evicted from the steemit crypto academy.

Conclusion
Prepare now, qualify now and you will definitely see improvements in the next season. Here in Campus connect we are grooming our community members through the various community projects to qualify and join steemit crypto academy beginners courses. We want to ensure that almost all newbies joining our community join crypto academy beginners courses.
