Some of our Organizations give out lab codes or Training Keys to unlock access to labs for their Users. If this is the case, as a student who has been given a code to access your labs, you should also have received a URL for the site where you will log in or create your user account. The login page for the site you are given will have a Sign In button and may have either a Create a user account link or a Register with Training Key field. There are also options to create an account through your Microsoft or Google logins.

Within the enrollment the student will access the labs and activities and if set up digital courseware and virtual classroom for their class.
A class is a scheduled instructor-led event with a start and end time/date. Typically, these include lectures and hands on activities such as labs.
