FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Where should I start?

If you’re new to Houdini, start with Houdini Fundamentals, our free structured learning path designed to take you from the basics to more advanced concepts. Once you’re comfortable with the fundamentals, you can put your skills into practice with Free Courses, continue with focused Pro Courses, or dive deeper with our Workshops.

What's the difference between Pro Courses and Workshops?

Pro Courses are focused, project-based courses designed to help you develop specific Houdini skills and create complete projects.

Workshops offer more in-depth training, exploring advanced workflows and complete production pipelines in greater detail.

Do I need previous Houdini experience?

Not necessarily. If you’re completely new to Houdini, we recommend starting with our free Houdini Fundamentals training. Individual Pro Courses and Workshops may have their own recommended experience levels, which you’ll find on each product page.

How long do I have access to the courses?

Once you enroll in a Pro Course or Workshop, you’ll receive lifetime access so you can learn at your own pace and revisit the training whenever you need.

Are project files included?

Yes. Most of our courses and workshops include project files and resources so you can follow along with the lessons and explore the setups yourself.

Are subtitles available?

Currently we have subtitles available in Chinese, Korean, Japanese, French & Spanish.
