FAQ

Do I need to already know DaVinci Resolve?+

No. The training suits beginners, self-taught users and professionals who want to structure their existing practice.

Can I train on a single module only?+

Yes. You can focus solely on editing, colour grading, Fusion, Fairlight, or a full workflow, depending on your actual need.

Is remote training suitable for beginners?+

Yes. What matters is the method, not just the format. A clear progression and a structured framework work very well remotely.

Can I get support to prepare for a Blackmagic Design certification?+

Yes, after an initial assessment. Certification pathways may be considered with an authorised training or certification partner, subject to eligibility, availability and a formal agreement.

How do I know which format to choose?+

The three-question assessment at the top of this page points you toward an indicative path. You can also browse the full catalogue directly.

Is an advanced level based only on self-assessment?+

No. Access to an advanced path relies on an assessment of the prerequisites (media management, colour management, reading scopes, node organisation), not only on a declared level.
