YGG Partners with Educational Platform Nas Academy to Build Web3 Metaversity
Yield Guild Games is partnering with Nas Academy, a creator-focused educational platform, to launch its own Web3 educational program. Hosted in Nas Academy’s community learning portal Nas.io, Web3 Metaversity will enable YGG Guild Badge holders to learn new skills and uncover income-earning opportunities in the Web3 space.
Through this partnership, members of the Web3 Metaversity community will receive educational content in a supportive environment where they can upskill together with like-minded individuals. YGG and Nas Academy’s long-term vision for the program is to empower participants to build promising careers in Web3 across a range of in-demand roles as community managers, content creators, crypto traders, NFT artists or specialists in other areas.
The YGG community can enjoy continuous access to the program by holding or minting a YGG Guild Badge. Upon signing up, members will receive access to different benefits, which include:
- Web3 Metaversity’s Discord server where they can engage with other people who are going through the learning journey
- Video library where the videos on various Web3 topics are hosted
- Different educational resources curated by the YGG and Nas Academy team
- Zoom sessions with YGG Community Managers, YGG Scholarship Managers and guest speakers like YGG co-founder Gabby Dizon, YGG Pilipinas Country Manager Luis Buenaventura,YGG Pilipinas Minister of Information Celeste Rodriguez, and YGG Head of Esports Mike Ovecka among others
“There is always a pathway to leadership for people who want to do more within the community. YGG’s partnership with Nas Academy will deliver educational content to onboard more people to Web3 and equip them with the necessary skills and confidence to thrive in the Metaverse. This is how we push forward on our mission to develop human talent and leadership within all aspects of the community,” said Gabby Dizon, YGG co-founder.
YGG Pilipinas Country Manager Luis Buenaventura II, who launched a course on Nas Academy about the fundamentals of cryptocurrencies early this year, shared, “Building an educational community for the beginners in the crypto space has been a dream of mine for a long time, and I’m supremely excited to be able to help facilitate people’s first steps into this new world. Working closely with Nas Academy Philippines ensures that the courses are short, fun and jam-packed with actionable information. We can’t wait to share it with our respective communities, as well as the crypto-curious mainstream audiences.”
The partnership will enable YGG to combine its Web3 expertise with Nas Academy’s engaging storytelling and high-quality production to empower communities while giving them the best possible learning experience.
YGG and Nas.io will be focusing on co-creating lessons and fostering community engagement. The partnership will empower play-to-earn communities to become Web3 leaders themselves as they learn new ideas from industry experts and discover opportunities for growth.
Nuseir Yassin, founder and CEO of Nas Academy, expressed, “We believe Web3 will change the world. It is the best opportunity for people to grow and own a piece of the internet, and together with YGG, we are so excited to provide all the education needed to turn somebody from zero to hero in the Web3 space.”
Alex Dwek, COO of Nas Academy, added, “At Nas Academy, we are excited to partner with YGG to bring Web3 education to the Philippines and Southeast Asia. Together, not only can we help bring in the next wave of users into Web3, but also provide upskilling opportunities for all. Web3 will be a source of future jobs, and through this partnership, we can help users across the region make this transition and play a role in the next phase of the internet.”
YGG community members who own a YGG Guild Badge or mint one can participate in Web3 Metaversity by heading to the Nas.io Web3 Metaversity portal. This will allow participants to sign up, fill out the application form and connect their MetaMask wallet that holds their YGG Guild Badge to qualify for the program.
