The Acala team is running a Substrate Developers Academy to help teach developers how to build on Substrate! 

Our goal is to create a hands-on and affordable educational environment where developers can learn from existing developers in the Polkadot ecosystem. We want to give developers the tools (education and mentorship) to build the next great DApp or Parachain on Polkadot.

The course has been developed by Bryan Chen, co-founder of Acala, and has involvement from several team members from Parity Technologies and across the Polkadot ecosystem. It currently has 40 applicants planning to attend. 

Our Ask: 
We are submitting a proposal for Council's consideration to fund 6 scholarships so that developers who find the cost of taking the course prohibitive can still attend. We are asking for a one-time payment of 643 DOTs.
