What is the CTBC Program?
The Certified Trust in Blockchain Compliance (CTBC) program, endorsed by IBBA, is your key to mastering both trust-building principles and blockchain compliance while becoming a highly qualified professional in this constantly evolving field.
This certification not only validates your technical and practical knowledge, but also prepares you to meet today's challenges in the use, regulation, compliance and application of blockchain and cryptoassets. Recognized by leaders in the financial, legal and corporate sectors, the CTBC is a seal of excellence that opens doors to high-impact career opportunities.
Difference between IBBA's CTBC Program vs. other certification training options
John, a lawyer, takes a one-day masterclass or a three-month diploma course on cryptocurrency regulation. He receives a certificate of attendance or completion, but without any rigorous evaluation or ongoing education. His knowledge may become outdated over time.
Laura enrolls in a specialization or a master’s program focused on finance or financial law (6 months to 2 years). While she gains in-depth knowledge, the curriculum often fails to keep pace with the rapidly evolving landscape of blockchain compliance and crypto regulation. Her degree remains valid for life, but it lacks a built-in mechanism for continuous updates aligned with new regulatory frameworks and technological developments.
María chooses the CTBC Program from IBBA, where:
She learns about crypto assets, regulatory compliance, and risk prevention with a practical and up-to-date approach.
She is rigorously evaluated and earns industry-recognized credentials.
She receives ongoing education and annual updates to stay current with regulatory and technological changes.
