In 2025 QNX launched QNX Everywhere, a global initiative launched by QNX to make its QNX Software Development Platform (SDP) 8.0 more accessible to developers, educators, and innovators by offering free access to QNX SDP8 for non-commercial use. With this expansion of QNX’s developer community, training became a strategic priority.
The company needed a way to deliver consistent, high-quality technical learning to thousands of learners worldwide. Teachfloor became the platform that made that possible.
Establishing a Global Learning Infrastructure
” We needed a centralized learning infrastructure that could support self-served technical training at scale while maintaining quality and consistency.” — Aaron Pesa, Senior Technical Project Manager, QNX
This was more than a content library. The QNX team wanted to remove financial and technical barriers and give learners a structured path from hands-on experimentation to industry-ready skills. That meant a platform with course management, automated workflows, reporting, and certification tools — all working together so learners everywhere get the same reliable experience.
A Structured Evaluation Process
QNX treated the LMS choice as a strategic investment. The evaluation looked beyond isolated features to long-term fit: adoption potential, scalability, total cost of ownership, and roadmap alignment. Ease of use was a quick win - the platform had to be intuitive for both administrators and learners. Functionality mattered: custom branding, integrations, reporting, certification, and even e-commerce readiness were on the checklist. Vendor responsiveness and a collaborative relationship were equally important.
Taken together, these factors made Teachfloor the best match for QNX’s immediate needs and long-term learning strategy.
QNX Everywhere: Scaling Delivery and Digitizing Instructor-led Training
“Free online training courses form a strong pillar for the QNX Everywhere program. Teachfloor’s LMS has been most valuable in the way it has streamlined online learning delivery to QNX’s developer ecosystem while reducing administrative effort across the organization. We are looking to strengthen the platform’s engagement and offerings in the years to come.” — Aaron
Teachfloor supports the online learning pillar of the QNX Everywhere program, enabling free access to QNX OS and tools for students, researchers, and prototypers. The platform supports structured courses that guide learners from early experimentation to advanced technical use cases.
Operationally, the LMS simplified content creation and course management. Content teams can publish and update courses with minimal friction, and administrators spend less time on routine tasks. Fast vendor support and rapid feature development have kept the program nimble.
A major objective was digitizing the instructor-led catalog: convert 14 courses and reach at least 6,000 learners in year one. That wasn’t just moving slides online — it was redesigning learning paths so technical concepts scale without losing rigor.
Today the platform supports a self-served learning model that reaches thousands globally while reducing operational friction. The program has turned a once-localized training catalog into a durable, global learning infrastructure that supports recruitment, community growth, and product adoption.
Looking Ahead: Expanding Access and Engagement
“Teachfloor remains an important player in our QNX Everywhere program as we look to open the QNX OS to learners, innovators, and future embedded engineers.” — Aaron
Looking ahead, the focus is on keeping new content digital by default, improving engagement, and expanding pathways from learning to hands-on prototyping and market-ready skills. QNX set out to make advanced embedded systems training accessible at global scale without sacrificing quality.
By choosing Teachfloor and digitizing its instructor-led catalog, QNX Everywhere now delivers free, consistent training to developers, students, and researchers worldwide — building a pipeline of skilled engineers for the next generation of safety-critical systems.
