Back to school with ONLYOFFICE: join our free course on creating PDF forms
Fillable PDF forms are everywhere: job applications, contracts, registration forms, questionnaires, invoices, and internal business documents. Creating one that is intuitive, easy to complete, and works exactly as expected is another story. Choosing the right field types, setting validation, organizing the layout, assigning roles, and making sure everything behaves correctly requires both the right tools and the right skills.
As back-to-school season approaches, we’re opening one of our professional training courses to everyone for free.

What the ONLYOFFICE PDF Form Creator Challenge is
We are launching a three-week online course focused entirely on creating fillable PDF forms with the ONLYOFFICE Form Creator.
Unlike a traditional self-paced course, this challenge combines video lessons with hands-on practice and direct interaction with the ONLYOFFICE team. Throughout the course, participants can ask questions, receive guidance from the ONLYOFFICE team, and apply new skills while working on their own PDF forms.
