We are able to schedule classes and have lab environments ready for us at the start of class. However, if there are no-show students, we can release unused lab environments.

THE PROBLEM

Make Lab-Based Training Easier to Manage

Technical training involves more than providing a lab. Teams also need to schedule classes, prepare lab environments, share materials, assign access, provide notifications, and ensure everything is ready before training begins.

When those tasks are managed across spreadsheets, email threads, shared folders, and cloud consoles, simple changes can take too long, and mistakes are likely to happen.

ReadyTech brings the lab management work into one place, helping your team stay organized and spend less time on manual coordination.

Schedule classes and lab access.

Reuse course templates.

Manage learner access and notifications.

Keep materials with the right training event.

Check lab readiness before class starts.

LAB SCHEDULING

Manage Lab Events From One Place

See what is scheduled, who is responsible, how many learners are attending, and whether lab environments are ready.

Event dashboard

ReadyTech gives training teams a clear view of the work behind each event. Instead of asking for updates or checking several systems, admins can manage event details, access, and lab status in one place.

  • Create one-time or recurring training events.
  • Set class dates, times, access windows, and seat counts.
  • Adjust seats when attendance changes.
  • Track deployment and readiness status.
  • Notify instructors, event owners, and learners.
  • Filter events by date, owner, status, or program.
  • Use analytics to review the success of your training program.

TEMPLATES AND ACCESS

Reuse Training Setups for Future Classes

Set up a course template once, then use it to create new classes with a few clicks, or use the RESTful API or LTI integration to schedule from an LMS.

Course templates

ReadyTech templates help teams keep lab configurations, schedules, presentations, materials, and access requirements together. When a course needs to change, update the template instead of rebuilding the setup for every new class.

  • Reuse lab and course settings
  • Standardize delivery across repeat classes
  • Attach materials to the right training setup
  • Update materials in one place

Enterprise access

This helps create a more consistent experience for admins, instructors, and learners.

  • Control access by role or training event
