Founded by certified professionals who understand the gap between traditional learning and real-world application in IT certification preparation.
Traditional IT certification training focuses on memorization through videos and text. We believe in hands-on, practical learning that mirrors real-world scenarios you'll face in your career.
Our students consistently outperform industry averages

Unlike Pluralsight, Infosec Skills, and Cybrary — we focus on hands-on performance-based questions, not just videos and simple VMs
Other platforms give you simple VMs and expect you to figure it out. We provide curated, scenario-based challenges that build real-world skills. Each challenge is designed to develop specific abilities and reinforce your learning faster than traditional labs.
Each PBQ lab takes only 15-30 minutes to complete, depending on your background and knowledge. No more spending hours on unfocused VM labs. Our bite-sized challenges fit into your busy schedule and maximize learning efficiency.
Your answers and steps are validated automatically and instantly. No waiting for manual grading or wondering if you did it right. Get immediate feedback on every action you take, so you learn in real-time.
At the end of each lab, see comprehensive stats showing what you did correctly, what you did wrong, where you need to improve, and specific areas to focus on. Your weaknesses and strengths are clearly displayed to guide your study path.
We don't just give you a VM and say "practice". Each lab presents a real-world scenario with specific objectives — configure this firewall, troubleshoot this network issue, secure this server. You learn by solving actual problems.
Our approach helps you learn faster than traditional labs. By focusing on specific skills with immediate feedback, you reinforce knowledge more effectively. That's why our students have a 95% first-attempt pass rate.
Stop watching boring video courses that make you sleepy. Start learning by doing.
Platforms like Pluralsight, Cybrary, ACI Learning, CBT Nuggets and others focus on endless video courses. You watch for hours, cram information before your exam, and forget most of it within weeks. This passive learning doesn't stick — and it certainly doesn't prepare you for real-world IT challenges.
Video courses make you feel like you're learning, but you're really just watching someone else do things. That's not how the brain builds lasting skills.
We believe in a simple truth: "You learn from your mistakes" — far better than when you're taught to do something passively. When you configure a firewall wrong and see it fail, that lesson sticks. When you troubleshoot a network issue yourself, you understand it deeply.
With our labs, practice exams, and performance-based questions, learners have passed their certification exams or mastered new IT skills in nearly half the time compared to other platforms they've used.
