BlackBerry (NASDAQ:BB) shares are up during Wednesday’s premarket session. The company disclosed the expansion of its online learning platform to enhance developer readiness.
QNX Platform Expansion Boosts BlackBerry
The QNX division of BlackBerry has reported strong global engagement with its free online learning platform.
This initiative is designed to accelerate developer readiness, reflecting a commitment to enhance its footprint in the automotive and industrial sectors.
In addition, the company expects the program’s expansion to attract a wider audience. This offers a clear path from learning to practical application, which could bolster BlackBerry’s market position.
The initiative comes at a time when the company is seeking to strengthen its offerings in secure communications and embedded software solutions.
Grant Courville, SVP of Products and Strategy at QNX, added, “QNX’s Online Learning platform was built to remove barriers and speed up skills development. It also allows users who need to evaluate QNX OS for potential use in a commercial application or create an early prototype to ramp-up quickly.”
”By investing in open, high‑quality training and pairing it with QNX Everywhere, we are helping both new and experienced developers become productive faster while also addressing the growing global shortage of skilled embedded software engineers.”
The company plans to continue to expand its catalogue of modules with advanced content in the coming year.
AMD Partnership
On Tuesday, BlackBerry’s QNX division disclosed expanded support for AMD Ryzen Embedded processors, enabling developers to build new systems with these chips using the QNX Software Development Platform 8.0.
The move broadens the companies’ collaboration and gives manufacturers another option for building systems used in cars, factory equipment, robots, and medical imaging devices.
