I took the Decentralized Finance course at Stanmore School of Business and found it to be a great introduction to the world of DeFi. The course covered a wide range of topics, from the basics of blockchain to more advanced concepts like smart contracts and decentralized lending. I appreciated the casual tone of the instructor, who made complex concepts feel accessible and easy to understand. One of the most valuable things I took away from the course was a practical understanding of how to use DeFi platforms to manage risk and increase returns. While there were some areas where I felt the course could have gone deeper, overall I was happy with the quality of the materials and the support from the instructor. I'd recommend this course to anyone looking for a solid foundation in DeFi.
