Virtual Live Labs

Virtual live labs provide you with an experimental environment where you can test your knowledge through online hands-on training with real software programs. Technology today can be complicated and while reading a training book is good it does not give you, the learner, an actual feel for what you are learning. In order to truly learn and understand something you need to use it; you learn by trial and error. This is called experiential training. The problem with experiential training is that it is not always feasible to have an experimental lab set up in order to test your new knowledge and you certainly do not want to be experimenting with a production system or network. This is where a virtual lab is of tremendous value.

Our virtual live lab servers host a variety of experimental environments. With our virtual labs, you have remote access to hands-on labs with which to experiment. For example, if you were training in Cisco networking, you would work in one of our Cisco live labs. By working in the online virtual environment, you eliminate the possibilities of crashing your network at the workplace or office. With all of our labs you will immediately see the effects of your work, and you will see the consequences if you make a mistake. If you do make a mistake, you can always reset the lab to its original settings if needed and start over again. With the virtual lab you learn in a self-contained environment that isolates you from the rest of the system so that any changes you make effect your environment only. It is like having your own private network at your disposal. Live labs are not only for networking. We also have live labs for Microsoft servers where you can experiment with active directory among other things. If your are preparing for your CCNA certification, our Cisco CCNA live labs are an ideal place for you to put into practice what you are learning. You now have no need to preconfigure your network at home or office to practice what you have learned; you can get online hands-on training with real software programs in our virtual labs setting.

Experiential learning is a key component of successful training. With K Alliance courses, accompanied by lab guides and remote access to hands-on labs, you gain access to the best e-learning environment. K Alliance is a premier source for CBT and online training resources. Our virtual live labs provide a safe place to experiment in areas that are not always available in a production environment and are ideal for adding experiential learning to the training experience.
