Toolwire's solutions bridge the gap between education and experience. Toolwire provides experiential learning solutions for classroom and e-Learning training programs. We enable lab capabilities around core IT areas, such as Cisco and Microsoft, and around tailored, customer specific requirements and applications.
Skills are developed from the experience of translating concepts into day-to-day practice. This process requires labs. Labs bridge the gap between knowing and doing. They provide students the freedom to engage in real-world scenarios, to take risks without worrying about taking down a production system, to practice their new skills, and to enjoy the rewards of successfully completing new challenges. Toolwire helps by allowing companies to focus on their core operations and not on the headaches associated with lab delivery. Our LiveLab solutions automate the delivery of labs, provide compelling ROI, and allow our customers to engage students on a new level.
LiveLabs for Enterprise Training
Enterprise LiveLabs is for companies looking to reduce training delivery costs, raise student satisfaction, and extend training reach for internal, customer, and/or partner training. Enterprise LiveLabs enables vendors to focus on building new courses, recruiting new students and building more revenue. Instead of juggling multiple lab images for each delivery option (classroom, distance-learning, and offsite venues), LiveLabs unifies lab delivery under one hosted, centrally managed and automated offering.
LiveLabs for IT Skills- Cisco and Microsoft
LiveLabs for Cisco and Microsoft is a hosted training solution that allows students to build skills through hands-on exercises with real software and real networking environments from the convenience of a web browser. LiveLabs puts your training curriculum to use in practical, real-world scenarios with live technology. LiveLabs for IT Skills is a full suite of robust, engaging labs for Cisco and Microsoft skills development and certification. Mapped to the most current, official course content, Toolwire’s lab packages support a variety of Cisco and Microsoft products and technologies.
