Chemicals & Materials

Quantum training for chemical, materials and battery companies: what quantum simulation can do for catalysts, batteries and new materials, and post-quantum migration for plants and R&D data.

We see the strongest case for quantum advantage in chemistry. Catalysts, battery materials and many industrial reactions depend on strongly correlated electrons that classical methods model poorly. Resource estimates for these problems have fallen by orders of magnitude. We expect the first quantum results on specific problems, such as battery cathodes, from the end of this decade.

Start with Quantum Technology for Chemicals and Materials, the four-hour course on catalysts, battery materials, resource estimates and what to prepare now. Computational chemistry teams can go further with Quantum Computing Fundamentals and Hands-On Quantum Programming. Your plants and R&D data still need post-quantum migration.

Industry applications

Quantum Technology for Chemicals and Materials

A four-hour course on the industry with the strongest case for quantum advantage. We cover catalysts, battery materials and correlated materials, how to read a resource estimate, and what to prepare now.

Executive 4 hours Online On-Demand / Live Online / In-Person
US$399–799 View program

We also teach quantum computing, quantum networking, quantum sensing and quantum AI, from a free one-hour introduction to engineering certifications.

Start with the free Introduction to Quantum Computing if the field is new to you.

For the executive who owns quantum across your organization, the Certified Chief Quantum Officer program covers computing, networking and sensing alongside post-quantum migration.

Post-quantum migration

We have not written a migration course for this industry yet. Companies in it still have to move their cryptography to post-quantum standards, and the courses below cover that work.

Start with Post-Quantum Foundation if the vocabulary is new.

For the people who will run your migration full time, we certify specialists, managers, architects and validators on the Post-Quantum Track.

Learning paths

Each link below shows the path with the Chemicals & Materials courses already chosen.

  • Security Leader For CISOs, their deputies and heads of security who answer for quantum risk and the migration budget.
  • Quantum Strategy Lead For CTOs, CIOs and heads of strategy or innovation who own quantum as an opportunity and a risk.
  • PQC Program Lead For program and project managers who will plan, run and report on a post-quantum migration.
  • Risk, Compliance and Audit For GRC, internal audit and second-line risk staff who assure a post-quantum migration.
  • Vendor Management For procurement, vendor management and third-party risk staff who set and check supplier requirements.
  • Quantum Computing Engineer For engineers and architects who evaluate, program and integrate quantum computers.
  • Quantum Network Engineer For network, telecom and security engineers who evaluate, design and deploy QKD and quantum networks.

Private team training

We run any course on this page for your team alone, tailored to your organization and delivered online or at your site on dates you choose. We quote each private course separately.

  • Pharma & Life Sciences For pharma and biotech teams working with validated systems, long record retention and trading partners.
  • Automotive For vehicle OEMs and tier-one suppliers, from OTA signing to V2X.
  • Energy & Utilities For electric, gas and water utilities, from control systems to smart meters.

Quantum Academy certifications are private, professional credentials issued by Post-Quantum Institute. They are not government-issued licenses, accredited academic degrees, or academic credit, and earning one does not guarantee employment, promotion, or any regulatory outcome. Quantum Academy programs are educational and informational only, and are not legal, compliance, or engineering advice.
