7-Step Learning Path for c4 courses

You don't need to come in with an investigative background. The CCA course is built to make sure you leave with one.

Step 1: Learn the Method, Not Just the Theory

You begin with the Cryptocurrency Investigation & Forensics Manual. It's not a textbook, its a manual for investigators.

Every major concept is backed by operational checklists that mirror what investigators do under time pressure. You'll learn to break down a situation the way professionals do: step by step, no guesswork.

🎯 What you'll gain: A working system for making investigative decisions under pressure.

Step 2: Train Your Brain with Interactive Quizzes

Every Interactive Quiz is designed to teach, not just test.

Every answer - right or wrong - includes a detailed explanation that shows you the logic behind it, the common mistakes it represents, and how it maps to real investigative thinking. You're not just answering, you're learning to think.

🎯 What you'll gain: A habit of analytical thinking and the ability to spot patterns of error.

Step 3: Analyze Real Cases, Not Hypotheticals

c4 case studies are not made-up examples. They are drawn from real cryptocurrency crime investigations, covering fraud, laundering, darknet markets, ransomware attacks, rug pulls, and more.

You'll get messy details, conflicting signals, and judgment calls. Just like a real case file.

🎯 What you'll gain: The ability to apply skills in unpredictable, real-world scenarios.

Step 4: Get Hands-On with Real Cryptocurrencies (Built for Training)

You won't just look at screenshots or block explorers. You'll use purpose-built cryptocurrencies and blockchain environments created specifically for learning.

You'll trace wallet flows, analyze transactions, and observe on-chain behavior. On cryptocurrencies and tokens made for learning and safe practice.

🎯 What you'll gain: Real blockchain investigation experience, without real-world risk.

Step 5: Talk to the People Who Do This for a Living

Your mentor is Rohas Nagpal. He's got 25+ years of experience in cybercrime & digital forensics with over a decade focused on cryptocurrency-related crime.

You’ll join live Ask-Me-Anything sessions with Rohas and his team of investigators. Bring your toughest questions and get answers from people who do this for a living.

🎯 What you’ll gain: Career clarity, practical insight, and direct access to the mindset of real investigators.

Step 6: Learn the Tools (And When Not to Trust Them)

You'll get trained on industry-grade investigative tools. But the course doesn't stop there. It teaches you how tools can help, where they fall short, and when to fall back on manual analysis.

Because in real investigations, clicking a button isn't enough.

🎯 What you'll gain: Tool fluency and the judgment to use them wisely.

Step 7: Work with Real Investigation Documents

You'll study authentic documents from actual cases: court records, SOPs, procedural notes, internal reports.

More importantly, you'll learn how to read them, how to find what matters, skip what doesn't, and extract the parts that move your investigation forward.

🎯 What you'll gain: Comfort with legal documentation and case materials used by real analysts.
