Virtual labs build networking experience without risking damage to your servers and infrastructure
 |
Theory only goes so far. Whether it’s systems design or engine repair, every technical discipline requires a great deal of hands-on experience to develop a true understanding. Networking is no exception, but the risks and expenses involved in setting up practice equipment are staggering. |
Safe, Affordable Networking Experience
This is why Element K offers vLab virtual labs, the only web-based learning system that enables you to connect directly with LIVE equipment in a real, risk-free environment.
- No need to worry about purchasing or damaging a dedicated training systems production environment.
- Set up a virtual environment for sales enablement to demonstrate new technologies to clients.
- Virtually configure and control a real working network, from home or at work, that's available 24x7.
- Apply newfound knowledge on live Cisco and Microsoft networking systems, solving actual problems using our bank of servers and infrastructure.
- Manage your own devices to practice resolving real problem-scenarios, and reinforce skills that map to your level of expertise.
Once a virtual lab session starts, you are given a set amount of time to complete the task. Afterward our vLab Assessor provides valuable performance feedback based on a review of what you accomplished in a given exercise.
