Odoo made easy

That's our motto.

Odoo made easy

That's what Oocademy stands for.

The idea of Oocademy was born in 2016 when founder, Yenthe Van Ginneken, began noticing a generally shared frustration amongst the Odoo developers in finding extensive documentation answering their questions.

It was not untill the beginning of 2018 that he took a leap of faith and started realising his dream: creating world's first Odoo technical training platform.

How did this dream originate?

It all started when Yenthe was still in elementary school, focussing on woodworking. He grew up in a family that loved working with their hands. As a kid, he could spend hours watching his grandfather create the most beautiful furniture he'd ever seen. Yenthe followed their interest, but soon realised that he didn't share the same passion...

The early days of Oocademy

The idea of Oocademy started to develop throughout the beginning of 2018.

It was not until august that the concept has evolved into a clear plan:

Oocademy will be an online technical training platform,
filled with tutorials, documentation, code generators,
webinars, Q&A sessions and customizable training courses!

The early days of Oocademy

Kickstarter logo Realizing Oocademy

Now there was a solid plan, it was time for the next step: where, when and how to start?
It became pretty obvious that this whole project was big. Bigger than one can afford and manage
during a 40-hours workweek. Realising this, Yenthe knew he had to make a decision. And so he did.

It was never an easy decision, but he chose to reduce the working hours in employment,
so he could spend more time on Oocademy.
Also, he chose to start a Kickstarter to help finance this project.

Odoo Experience 2018

The official start of Oocademy

With those decisions made, the project was starting to
move forward.

Now there was only one more step to take:
introduce Oocademy to the world!
And what better way than doing this at Odoo’s yearly event, Odoo Experience?

On the 3rd october of 2018, founder Yenthe presented this brand-new and upcoming platform at Odoo Experience.
You can watch the presentation on Youtube.
