Learn 4D: A New Space to Learn, Grow, and Evolve with 4D

Training has always been part of 4D’s identity. Sharing knowledge, promoting best practices, and supporting developers in building their skills has always been a top priority.

In recent years, however, things have changed. The rise of remote work and distributed teams has challenged traditional in-person training formats. At the same time, the rapid pace of new features in the 4D platform, along with a new release cycle, requires constant updates, rewrites, and improvements to training content.

Learn 4D was created in response to this shift.

WHY LEARN 4D?

We have wanted a dedicated training platform for a long time. One that works well for both learners and instructors. Learn 4D meets several key goals:

• Track progress accurately

• Provide named individual accounts

• Organize content in a scalable and structured way

• Make it easier to update training in line with product changes

This platform moves beyond one-off materials to offer a consistent and lasting learning environment.

BEING A DEVELOPER MEANS MORE THAN JUST CODING

Development work is not just about typing code. A big part of the job involves learning, staying informed, rethinking habits, and updating your skills.

In the middle of busy projects, this part of the role is often overlooked. Many rely on what they already know, using long-standing habits because there is no time or framework for learning differently. But technology evolves quickly. Tools change. Best practices shift.

Learn 4D addresses this reality by offering a space that supports continuous learning, fits into a developer’s daily routine, and highlights the importance of learning as part of the job.

A MULTILINGUAL PLATFORM POWERED BY AI

Language has often been a challenge. In the past, our training was mostly offered in French and English, and quality sometimes varied depending on the instructor’s language.

Today, thanks to progress in artificial intelligence, which is also a core part of the 4D product and ecosystem, we can do much more.

Here is what Learn 4D offers:

• All written content is available in French, English, Spanish, and German

• Videos are currently available in French and English, with AI-generated translations

• Every translation is reviewed and approved by instructors or the Learn 4D team to ensure it is natural and accurate

Our goal is to add Spanish and German videos soon so that the international 4D community enjoys a consistent experience.

MORE THAN COURSES: A COMPLETE LEARNING HUB

Learn 4D is not limited to structured courses. It is a central space for learning across the 4D ecosystem. It brings together a wide range of resources:

• Complete courses to build or expand your knowledge

• Free monthly webinars hosted by the product team, available both on Learn 4D and YouTube

• Masterclasses and content from past 4D Summits, now being added to the platform

• Editorial content with best practices, user stories, and technical insights, planned for future release

The 4D Blog focuses on product features and is written by Product Owners with each release. Learn 4D will complement it by providing more implementation-focused, architecture-based, and use-case-driven content.

FEEDBACK THAT DRIVES CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

At the end of each course, we ask for your feedback. You can rate the course from 1 to 5 stars and leave a comment if you wish.

These responses are very important. They help us:

• Spot any errors or unclear content quickly

• Continuously improve existing training

• Understand what you need and shape future course topics

Learn 4D is designed to evolve based on your feedback.

STAY UP TO DATE WITH THE DEDICATED DISCUSS FORUM subCATEGORY

A dedicated subcategory in the Announcements category is now available on the 4D Discuss forum to support Learn 4D and its growing content. Here you can find announcements about new courses, important updates, and additional resources posted on the platform.

To stay informed, you can subscribe to this category. Visit the category page, browse the list of published topics, and click the bell icon at the top of the page to receive real-time notifications when new topics and courses are added.

This forum category is also a place where learners and instructors can engage in conversation. It allows you to ask questions, discuss content, and share learning experiences.

For feedback on specific courses, such as suggestions or corrections, we recommend using the built-in feedback tool within Learn 4D. This helps us keep all improvements organized and focused.

QUIZZES, KNOWLEDGE CHECKS, AND PLANS FOR CERTIFICATION

Currently, only some courses include quizzes. Expanding this is a major priority for Learn 4D. The goal is to make quizzes a regular part of the platform so that learners can:

• Confirm they understand the key concepts

• Reinforce what they have learned

• Enjoy a more interactive learning experience

We are also considering automatic certificates when a final quiz is completed. This would help learners show what they have learned and prove their progress.

And, if demand is high enough… perhaps even bring back the official 4D certification; from a time some of you may remember. 😉

LEARNING PATHS TO TAKE YOU FURTHER

One of the next steps for Learn 4D is the introduction of thematic and structured learning paths.

These learning paths are designed to group different types of resources — courses, videos, webinars, and articles — into logical and coherent sequences around specific topics.

For example, the entire “4D Coding” course series will be grouped into a dedicated learning path, allowing developers to follow all related content in a consistent and structured way.

In addition to these thematic paths, Learn 4D will also offer progressive learning paths, designed to guide learners through a logical progression by combining multiple courses and resources in a clearly defined order.

These learning paths are intended for:

• Developers who want to structure their learning around a specific topic

• Developers looking to strengthen or consolidate their foundations

• Experienced developers who want to refresh their knowledge, adopt more modern practices, or revisit essential concepts

These learning paths will be useful for:

• Beginners

• Developers looking to strengthen their foundation

• Experienced developers who want to refresh their knowledge, adopt more modern practices, or revisit the essentials.

ACCESS LEVELS DESIGNED TO SUPPORT THE PARTNERS PROGRAM

To access Learn 4D, you first need a 4D account.

Creating a 4D account is free, and it can be done directly from the Learn 4D platform.

Once logged in, Learn 4D offers two levels of access to its content.

Most resources are available with standard access, while some courses are reserved for 4D Partners.

Partners get extended access to all content, including exclusive training reserved for Partner members. Access is based on the number of user licenses defined in the Partner contract. For example, a Silver Partner with two seats can grant Learn 4D access to two named developers. If more team members need access, the Partner can contact their 4D sales representative to update the agreement.

Partner-specific content is clearly identified: courses reserved for Partners display a “Partner Content” label, making it easy to see at a glance which resources are exclusively available to Partners (Silver and above).

Non-Partners have access to selected content on Learn 4D. This approach supports open knowledge sharing while also recognizing the value of the Partners program.

Offering free content is not a minor decision. It provides a first step into learning with 4D. At the same time, it keeps key benefits exclusive for Partners, including access to advanced training on Learn 4D.

👉 Are you not yet a 4D Partner?

Access to Learn 4D and its exclusive content is one of many advantages in the 4D Partners program. Other benefits include direct support, guidance, and commercial perks.

Feel free to contact your 4D sales representative or visit the Partners Program page to learn more.
