HELIX BY XTREMELABS
Helix Labs
Learn technology by using technology.
Some skills cannot be learned by watching someone else perform them.
Helix Labs gives learners hands-on access to technology environments where they can configure systems, complete tasks, troubleshoot problems, and practice the workflows they are learning.
Practice is part of learning
Reading about a configuration and performing it are different learning activities.
Helix Labs puts learners in the environment where the work happens. Instead of only seeing how a task is completed, learners perform the task themselves.
Guidance can provide structure while the environment gives learners the opportunity to practice.
Real technology. Practical tasks.
Helix Labs supports practical technology learning across cloud platforms, software, infrastructure, and other technical environments.
Learners can work through activities designed to reinforce the concepts and procedures covered by their course.
Built for structured learning
Hands-on labs can be incorporated into:
- Instructor-led training
- Academic courses
- Workforce development
- Certification preparation
- Self-guided learning
Organizations can provide consistent lab experiences without requiring every learner or instructor to build and maintain an individual practice environment.
Understanding before, during, and after the lab
A lab is especially effective when the learner understands the concepts behind the steps.
Helix Interactives can help learners explore those concepts. Helix Labs gives them a place to apply them. Helix Assess can help determine what they retained and can use.
Together, these experiences connect understanding, practice, and evidence of learning.
Do the work.
Technology skills develop through practice.
Helix Labs gives learners somewhere to practice them.
