Binance Academy, a free educational platform helping people learn about cryptocurrency, is partnering with the Blockchain Center, a global research lab, and ENSET-Université Hassan II de Casablanca to extend its Global University Outreach Program (GUOP) to Morocco. 

Binance Academy and Blockchain Center are hoping to reshape the educational landscape for blockchain technology by integrating a blockchain engineering course into the university based in Casablanca, Morocco.
