  Overview

  Online Reference Library  

  An online, interactive technical reference library of hundreds of books from today's top publishers. Students can browse and search by title and keyword, and bookmark or print for later reference.

  vLabs

  Most learning teaches you theory. Only vLabs give you real hands-on practice with access to LIVE equipment. And, when it comes to preparing to solve on-the-job business problems using different information technologies, there's no substitute for hands-on experience with real equipment.

  Consider the potential costs and risks of giving novice student's unlimited access to servers and software. Real equipment like this can run into six figures if you buy it - and costly monthly charges if you lease it. But, with vLabs, there is no need to worry about purchasing or damage to production systems.

  Collaboration Centers

  Multiple message boards monitored by instructors are designed to offer students an opportunity to request assistance with course-specific questions.

  Training Administration Capabilities

  Allows tracking and reporting on the learning progress of your staff. Create and distribute student access rights, access support for distributed training administrator functionality, and view comprehensive reporting and messaging.

  A Fully Hosted Solution

  No investment in servers, licensing or software needed.
