No, we will consider all applications submitted until the deadline of the respective program and cohort.

The usual cohort size is 200 people. If possible, separate morning and afternoon sessions are offered to accommodate candidates sitting in different time zones.

The CV and motivation letter need to be submitted in English, as the whole program is also held in English.

This depends on the program that you will be attending. We want to give people worldwide equal access to our program. Thus, we normally offer two time slots, one in the morning and one in the evening (Central European [Summer] Time). For 2025, we’ll streamline to a single evening slot, ensuring widespread participation with minimal schedule changes.

Please post your questions related to the cohort you are participating in in the respective PRIVATE Discord servers. In the #general Discord channel you can find all alumni – let’s be considerate of each other’s limited attention span and time 👍.

No, the Talents programs are free of charge. This is made possible thanks to our Partners.

Talents programs will be held once annually to ensure each cohort receives focused attention and a rich learning experience. Please note, that for 2025, we’ve decided to put our NFT and ReFi Talents programs on pause.

While we typically offer the flexibility of morning and evening sessions to accommodate diverse schedules, for the current year (2025), we are conducting only evening sessions.

It depends on your knowledge level and motivation. Generally, the programs are in the design of an inverted classroom. Thus, you are not being lectured, but rather mentored and learning by yourself or in small study groups. The more you put into the program, the more you will learn in the end. We estimate a minimum of 12 hrs per week to successfully finish the program.

Make sure to send in all the documents required of you, in the correct form. Simply Google for best practices! You can find all information on the Internet. Also please ensure that your application is in English. Generally speaking, an interesting and engaging letter of motivation, as well as already existing technical skills can be an advantage.

This depends on the deadline for applications. After that, we need 1-2 weeks to make the final selection. You should hear back at least 2 weeks before the program starts.

We will issue a customized PDF Proof of Attendance (PoA). Therefore, please give us 2 weeks’ time and refrain from inquiries related to the issuance of the PoA during this time period.

Thank you for your interest. Please refer to this guide: Call for Mentors for DLT Talents, DeFi Talents, NFT Talents, Bitcoin Talents, and ReFi Talents
