LabSim Features

LabSim is an engaging, self-paced training solution that thoroughly prepares you for the most sought-after IT certifications. In addition, the multimedia technologies and simulations in each LabSim title will familiarize you with the tasks and concepts you need to know to have a successful career in the fast-paced IT industry.



Video Training
You are going to love the fact that you feel like you’re in a classroom with your instructor at the whiteboard. Your instructor will cover everything you need to know to pass your certification exam. His personable approach of using analogies and humor will simplify the subject matter, and help you grasp the concepts. You will also enjoy the format of the videos, which lets you rewind and fast forward so you can review difficult concepts as many times as you like, allowing you to learn and retain much more.


Lab Exercises
The hands-on labs are the heart and soul of LabSim. You will build real-world job skills, validate acquired knowledge, and gain experience. The labs give you the equivalent of 2 years of technical experience in performing tasks such as installation, configuration, diagnosing, administration, and troubleshooting. These broadly-functional simulations also let you make mistakes and try several methods to get the correct outcome. These are the lessons only experience can teach.




Practice Exams
The only practice exam that will measure and validate your skills, knowledge, and experience. LabSim practice exams let you:
• Measure your knowledge and experience
• Identify areas that you need to improve with links to course content
• Get detailed feedback for each question
• Compare your scores to other users around the world
