-
How the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) extends Web3
Welcome to the Introduction to Web3 course!
This course is a practical approach to learning and understanding Web3.
Rather than simply defining what Web3 is, we will explore how it works by breaking it down into its core layers - from blockchain infrastructure and smart contracts to decentralised applications, wallets, and user interaction.
Students will also learn how the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) expands the stack by providing decentralised cloud infrastructure.
Each section includes links to interactive simulation labs. These activities allow you to experiment with key concepts in real time, helping you turn theoretical knowledge into practical skills.

Before taking this course, I often heard terms like blockchain, cryptocurrencies, DAOs, but I didn't understand how they connected or what Web3 really meant. The course explains Web3 layer by layer, from blockchain through to wallets and NFTs, and shows how each layer builds on the one below it. By the end, I had a complete picture and felt confident explaining the concepts to others. What I valued most were the labs. After each topic, the course refers you to an external simulation lab where you can try the concepts yourself. This hands-on practice turned the theory into real understanding. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to stay up to date with what is happening in the digital world, as it allows you to learn the fundamentals even without any technical skills.
