# Arbitrum RWA Academy Topics

Our RWA Academy will focus on three key areas:



1. Educating about the RWA ecosystem.
2. Educating users about RWA projects, their benefits, and risks.
3. Educating builders about regulations, structuring, and important integrations within the ecosystem.

Currently, no resources are available that delve into these areas in depth. For each topic, we plan to create:



* 3-5 detailed guides, explaining some of the important topics within these areas.
* 10-15 tidbits, covering the most crucial information in these areas, designed to allow readers to learn more about each topic in under 5 minutes.

**In total, we will be creating 9-12 guides and 30-40 tidbits.**

Below are some the topics we plan to cover in the three areas
