TYPO3 13 video training or masterclass - which suits you best?

I've been getting this question a lot lately: Should I take the TYPO3 13 video training or the Masterclass? The answer depends on how you work and what you specifically need.

What both courses have in common

Both courses offer you a structured learning path for TYPO3 13, with practical examples ranging from installation, templates and TypoScript to content elements. Both courses include access to the community area and forum. And if you realize that you need more, you can upgrade at any time.

Video training: For self-learners with basic projects

The video training covers all the basics and best practices for TYPO3 13. Installation, backend, page structure, templates, TypoScript, Fluid, content elements - everything you need for solid standard websites. You learn at your own pace, ask questions in the forum and work your way systematically through the topics.

The video training suits you if you:

• work solo and can learn independently
• have time to try things out at your own pace
• implement standard websites without complex requirements
• have a basic knowledge of HTML and CSS and want to tackle the transition to 13 in a structured way

Masterclass: With support and special topics

The masterclass contains all the content of the video training plus additional topics that become important in more complex projects: Multilingualism, protected areas, editorial workflows, the "container" extension and AI in TYPO3. There are also bonus videos on various special topics.

The main difference, however, is the support: you get regular live sessions in which you can clarify specific cases. One hour of personal 1:1 support for tricky setups. Prioritized answers in the community area when time is of the essence. And you can download all videos - important for teams who want to secure their knowledge permanently.

The Masterclass is right for you if you:

• implement multilingual sites or protected areas
• have time pressure and need to solve blockers quickly
• work in a team and need common standards
• want live support for individual questions
• Want to use videos offline or make them permanently available to the team

Three questions to help you decide

1. Do you need multilingualism, protected areas or editorial workflows? Then Masterclass.
2. Do you work in a team or have demanding customer projects with time pressure? Then it's worth taking the Masterclass.
3. Do you want to use videos offline or have them permanently available in your team? That also speaks in favor of the Masterclass.

If you answer no to all three questions, the video training is enough.

Unsure? Start risk-free and stay flexible

Start with the video training and secure all the TYPO3 basics - without risk. If your projects become more complex or you need more support, you can upgrade to the Masterclass at any time and immediately benefit from personal support and special topics. So you always make the right decision for your current situation.
