Comprehensive
Skillable Studio features flexible lab authoring and configuration tools, with the option to create your labs from scratch, get started quickly using our topic-focused template gallery, update existing labs on your own or work with our team to create new labs together.
Built into every lab is our real-time scoring engine that helps you determine if your users are mastering skills or just guessing. And, of course, we enable Activity-based Assessments using multiple-choice questions, fill in the blank, etc.
Our scalable production environment has supported 25 million lab launches, with an average of 20,000 launches daily. We’re also scaled to support more than 40,000 concurrent users so we can handle anything you want to create, from global skilling programs to massive software releases.
We also offer extensive reporting and analytics capabilities to help you harness your new-found data as well as an integrated LMS platform if you need assistance with managing all your skilling plans.
All of this is supported by five data centers around the world and 24-hour Network Operations and Support teams.
Innovative
Skillable is the leading innovator in the virtual labs category, with numerous firsts tagged to our talented team.
- First to deliver dynamic instructions that directly interact with the learning environment.
- First to deliver scored labs with knowledge checks, scripted activity-based assessments and performance testing.
- First to enable shared labs with shared resources that enable multiple users to work cooperatively, competitively, individually or in teams.
- First to enable Cloud Slice at scale, technology that allows you to carve out a small slice of a cloud vendor’s environment per user in a highly-managed, highly-secure way, driving lower costs, better scale and faster setup while preventing fraud and abuse.
- First to enable lab environments to automatically perform tasks, such as invoking a web API, sending notifications to students and invoking commands.
- We also renewed our SOC 2 Type 2 Certification, which you can learn more about on our Security page.
Configurable
Skillable can be configured for any learner audience – customers, partners and employees – enabling you to create specific hands-on labs based on how your software is used for topics such as:
- DevOps/Cloud Technologies
- Coding/Software Development
- Data and Analytics
- End User Productivity
- Information/Cyber Security
- Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence
- Network Administration
- Systems Administration
- Database Administration
As you think about what you want to create, keep in mind that you can also tailor it to varying skill levels, delivery modalities and instructional design methods. And if you don’t have those lab author and development skills, we can extend your team with ours.
Skillable also takes into account where your users are located, launching labs from the closest datacenter and the written language they prefer, offering a variety of translations for your instructions and lab elements.
Integrated
Skillable is different from other lab vendors in that we provide one platform for both skills development and assessment as well as robust API and LTI capabilities to integrate into your existing LMS, CRM, BI and/or learning system.
You also have the ability to embed labs into other applications or services, such as within your LMS or on a web page, and to embed custom assets (such as videos, images, files and web pages) into your labs.
Easy
Skillable knows that your time is precious and that your team is busy.
Working directly with lab developers around the world led us to create a template gallery where you can use a pre-configured lab as the basis of your lab, taking the administrative work out of your development time.
Once your base lab environments are created, you have access to intuitive authoring tools to make them shine.
Ease of use continues on to your learners, with 100% web-based delivery through modern web browsers, enabling them to connect and start skilling without having to install software or connect to a VPN.
Proven
25 million lab launches tells you that we’re not new to IT skilling.
We are proud to be trusted by industry-leading companies such as Microsoft, Amazon, IBM, Skillsoft, CompTIA, EC-Council, Arrow, Veritas, QA and New Horizons, to name just a few.
Skillable’s leadership team has decades of experience in the IT training industry and our company is routinely recognized by industry champions for our work with virtual IT labs and technical skills development.
