EDUCATION BLOCKCHAIN INITIATIVE
The American Council on Education (ACE) announced four Phase 1 winners in the Blockchain Innovation Challenge, a $900,000 competition funded by the Department to explore the potential of distributed ledger technology to equitably empower learners to translate their educational outcomes into economic opportunity. ACE partnered with the Presidents Forum, which managed the application review and selection process, to provide technical assistance to the winners. Independent reviewers and an initiative steering committee evaluated proposals using a rigorous process emphasizing quality of design, technological approach, and sustainability.
Phase 1 winners each received $150,000 to establish a minimum viable project this spring that demonstrates potential to implement their solution. Those selected to continue to Phase 2 will share in an additional $300,000 to fully implement their pilot projects.
