Prior to using RT our learners had to be physically present in our building. This came with significant financial and time costs to both our organization and theirs (in fact, our classes operated at a loss to us). Attempting to teach software skills without the ability to directly "reach through" the computer to assist learners was frustrating to everyone. RT completely solved both of these problems!

What instructors and training teams say about ReadyTech.
Based on 233 reviews on G2
“The simplicity to access and setup has been great, enabling huge savings in time and resource.”
“In our previous training environment, setting up a training class took hours; with ReadyTech, it takes only minutes.”
One instructor view across any type of lab setup.
Different programs need different lab setups. Some use cloud provider hosted labs. Others use in-house infrastructure, local machines, ReadyTech-hosted labs, or custom hardware. Lab Overview gives instructors a consistent live view regardless of the lab delivery model, so they can monitor learner activity, spot inactivity, transfer files, and step in when help is needed.
