As many members said above, it would be better and more effective to hold a seminar, between 2-3 days I think is sufficient to maximize all the material rather than having to take months. Moreover, you do this voluntarily right? I think it is more efficient both in terms of cost, time and effort.
Do not forget to provide material about the risks in investing with cryptocurrency so that those who are just learning to understand the cryptocurrency ecosystem better and are not only profit-oriented but also mentally prepared to deal with losses.

We all know how worked hard Satoshi Nakamoto made the blockchain, for the ease of all of us, should we not do anything for this?
So the answer is yes, we too should do something.

That's why I and some of my friends have decided that we will. We will build a small academy with only two or three rooms, where we will tell people about blockchain, without any fees.

I want to know this from you, is this a good idea? Please tell me if this is not the right way.

We can only invest two or three months for this Academy.


Lessons:
How blockchain works.
How to send or receive.
How to buy/sell cryptocurrencies ( Trading).
What is the private Key.
What is the difference between Coins and Tokens.
What is ICO or IEO.

1. Yeah, teach them the basics of blockchain. Let them know why it is better than the traditional currency.
2. Before teaching them how to send/receive, teach them about different wallets.
3. I don't think trading is actually necessary at all. At least for now since they are all beginners.
4. Not just private keys, the public keys and its importance (include digital signatures too).
The rest two are not needed to be honest.
Lastly, you forgot the main thing. Teach them how to keep their wallets safe!

There is nothing wrong with your plan. it is good. giving people knowledge about crypto. it's just that, in my opinion it would be more interesting if it was an open explanation. so that more people can join. for example providing education in a meetinghouse. so you can give knowledge to more than 100 people in 1 crypto education session.

And you need the most important lesson of them all (no.1) What is Bitcoin. If you are not willing to talk about Bitcoin, don't come talking about Satoshi.

Thanks for your suggestion bro perfect point, Actually there are a lot of videos on YouTube for this, but I want to educate my local community

YouTube videos or any other video tools for educating someone will never be enough , specially to those people who have zero knowledge about cryptocurrency in general. It will always be better if there's someone who could dictate every bit of details and someone that the audience could interact with.
Anyway, this is a good idea, but I think building up a small academy this early will drain your budget specially you guys are shouldering everything. A certain venue like renting a function hall are a good start up while you're still gathering interested audiences.

This kind of academy would be more effective if the people who you are trying to teach are already familiar or at least know what you are talking about. Since no one would really be interested from lessons like this even if they are free. Aside from that is your country even considered as a crypto-friendly country or are they even aware what cryptocurrencies are? Because if they aren't then teaching them about Blockchain and cryptocurrencies wouldn't matter at all since your country isn't even prepared for the changes, the teachings they will receive would be with no use when there is not adoption happening for your country. So maybe see first if your country is currently at least moving in the right direction before you start building your academy.

The first reply on the first page was right, that too much for expenses if you build a building just for the academy and educate people regarding blockchain for free. This facility is not necessary if everyone is easy to access the internet, which is a simple click and browse you will see how blockchain it works. Conducting a seminar in different places is a good idea but you need to spend some of your money on transportations in traveling.

I don't want to earn from this. I and my friends want to convince people.

You are very kind, especially with free, without fees.  with a long enough time span, is that accompanied by direct practice?  for example directly applied wallet creation, etc.?

In addition to technical matters that you have compiled as learning material, it is also a good idea to include information about the risks and types of fraud in using cryptocurrency, such as MLM, seed hackers, Ponzi, etc.  thus the orientation is not merely about profit, and has a strong mentality and preparation in dealing with losses.  because many people end up hating cryptocurrency because of expectations too high without understanding the risk, when the expectations do not match reality then it makes them disappointed and says cryptocurrency is dangerous.  understand that too.

If your sole moto is to teach people about blockchain and the bitcoin then you have many other options to try.
For instance you can make videos regarding the topics you listed and post them on social media.
You can also conduct little seminars and get togethers and meetups which will encourage people to learn about blockchain.
You can also hire some volunteers and host an event and teach people about blockchain in areas where people have less knowledge about crypto.
These are just few options whereas you can explore many more options. Teaching has no boundaries.

i think this is a good idea to support bitcoin and if you want to educate local it will be hard and expensive
it's better if you will make a website and make it online provide everything they need in 1 website
then told them to contact you if they have some question and just organize group session once or twice a month
you can make it with lower cost and can be sustained without many expenses

If its not sustainable it will cease to exist quickly and it would not make any sense. You might as well do the same on social media or streaming video where at least the teaching will remain online for anyone to see later and not limited to "3 rooms".

It might make more sense if you intend to make videos from it, knowingly that without any funds you'll probably close it after 1 class anyway.

And you need the most important lesson of them all (no.1) What is Bitcoin. If you are not willing to talk about Bitcoin, don't come talking about Satoshi.

Never give an intro about these scams, that's totally a bad idea!

Look brother it is our job to tell them what this thing is, whether to invest or not to do their will

This is definately a good endeavour but you won't get anywhere without any funding. I suggest you putting these lectures out on youtube to try and monetize your efforts for further supporting

I would probably suggest you to go with plvbob0070 and jackg's idea of spreading the word about bitcoin. For that you should be well aware of what blockchain and bitcoin is. Blockchain is the technology behind bitcoin and satoshi never named them as blockchain rather it was called timechain. You should probably go to various schools, universities and give your idea on bitcoin and why they are better for this world. Blockchain is required but at the same time we do need bitcoin as well apart from shitcoins.

I want to know this from you, is this a good idea? Please tell me if this is not the right way.
If you are gonna shill about shitty ICOs, IEOs and other scams I would say this is certainly a bad idea. Exchanges use these IEO coins to scam investors. If you are going to educate someone about bitcoin/blockchain in general you should be well aware about the technicalities and the backend processes which governs them.


Lessons:
...snip...
Try these lessons out if you want to convey a good info to your students

  • How bitcoin and blockchain works.
  • How to send or receive bitcoins and how to use them in real world transactions
  • Why bitcoin is required for a better world
  • Private keys, Public Keys and basic types of wallets
  • What is the difference between bitcoin and fiat money

What is ICO or IEO.
Never give an intro about these scams, that's totally a bad idea!

Why not!? Academy for learning blockchain would be next to making these world better. I would suggest doing it first in youtube because this is where you can build more visibility from the regular people. Majority of the people in the planet are watching youtube videos and if they wanna learn something, its youtube that they turn to. I'm sure you only need one room for this one for a good start.

Should it really go that far?

It looks like what you will talk about can all be found here.
Well, if that suits your countrymen then I think it will not be bad.

But what will they get afterwards? I don't think there is a certificate for that. Something to prove that they went thru an academy which you people have started.
Where will you get the approval of the government? Those kind of things needs to be deeply thought first.
Or, you will just be doing another time wasting curriculum for all your students.
Maybe 2-3 hours in weekends should be enough. Why not just skype?
In what country is this?

I agree after taking an account in this forum at first I was very close-minded and doesn't know a bit of the inside of how bitcoin works but years have past and eventually, they can sure get it with experience, in my opinion, it is only a waste of time and that 3 months of capital you will pour in here can sure make a great addition for supporting your families or other foundation that is needing financial support,

I can't believe there will be someone that is willing to teach without getting an earning with it, I sure think that your intention is good but getting student with that interest in cryptocurrency can be some what very hard in my opinion and teaching with skype can also be helpful and convinient.

You can teach some one ready with risk of investment in bitcoin, altcoin, ICO, IEO and cryptocurrency world investment, many people only seeing with hoe much profit getting by some one after investing with bitcoin and altcoin but never looking for how much they lost investment with bitcoin and altcoin and they not ready.

Better to have online website which provide readings or video tutorial in it. Of low in budget it will be enough. And maybe you can earn if you'll be able to be contacted by those who really want a personal discussion regarding bitcoin or blockchain.

Our first motive is that we found a place near a college, and we will ask the management there to send their students to us.
