Key Features
The Academy has grown to include new tracks and featured content:
Need Quick Answers? Explore the Knowledge Base
While the Academy is your go-to for structured learning and certification, our Knowledge Base serves as the definitive documentation library for Pigment. Think of it as your "on-the-job" manual. It houses everything from a comprehensive Functions Library to deep dives into Member Access & Permissions and Native Connectors.
Whether you need to troubleshoot a specific formula, explore Test & Deploy best practices, or learn how to connect the MCP Server to Microsoft Copilot, the Knowledge Base provides instant, searchable documentation to keep your builds moving forward without a hitch.
The Power of the Pigment Community
The Academy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It is deeply integrated with the Pigment Community.
As you progress through your courses, you can jump into the Academy Study Hall to ask questions, share best practices, or discuss complex modeling hurdles with peers and Pigment experts. This blend of structured learning and peer support ensures that no one is left behind.
Pro Tip: To get the most out of the Academy, we recommend having a Pigment Workspace open in a separate tab. Most of our paths, like the UX Design Journey, include hands-on activities where you build Boards from mock-ups in real-time.
Who can access the Pigment Academy?
The Academy remains available to all Pigment customers and partners. To get the most out of the hands-on lessons, you’ll need access to the Pigment platform. Log in through your Community account to see your personalized menu of content.
Remember, learning doesn't stop once you master a subject. We are constantly adding new features and courses to ensure you stay at the forefront of the industry.
