(more drawing...look how happy)
There's blockchain technology and all these new terms you hear, like wallets, self-custody, issuance policy, Layer 1, and bridges. Then there's investment theses, security, regulation, and compliance for you as a financial professional.
It can seem overwhelming. Where do you even start?
On top of learning the tech and financial aspects, you can't be sure whom you can trust. Not everyone with a blog or YouTube channel (or worse...TikTok) knows what they're talking about. Even fewer understand our industry.
That's why we've crafted this comprehensive course specifically for CPAs – to cut through the noise and complexity and provide clear, actionable knowledge from trusted experts.
With the Interaxis course, you can confidently learn crypto and blockchain concepts directly applicable to enhancing your CPA practice. We'll guide you step-by-step so you gain technical skills and a strategic understanding of how digital assets transform finance.

This course is for financial professionals. That means anyone who helps someone else with their money - Financial Advisors, CPAs, Bankers, Attorneys
If you want to learn to trade crypto, speculate, or try to get 200% yields for yourself, this isn't really for you.
Of course. We don't really turn anyone away. Even if you have another business model in mind, we'll teach you how to walk through client conversations.
First, you can't trust everything you see on YouTube. Second, those creators aren't making videos specifically for financial professionals to add crypto to their practice. Third, you can get a designation to show clients, and you get CE credits.
We combine whiteboard videos with live sessions, and we update our content regularly. Kind of important when it comes to crypto. Also, you can get the CDAA designation.
You can go to Certifieddigital.org to learn more about the Certified Digital Asset Advisor designation, and what separates it from other crypto certifications.
That's not a question...but there are probably other assets you can't advise on, but your clients invest in. You should still know enough to have conversations. Also, at some point you will be able to advise on crypto, so better to learn now.
