On-demand activities

Find the right on-demand learning activities for you. Labs are short learning activities that teach you a specific lesson by giving you direct, temporary, hands-on access to real cloud resources. Courses are longer activities, consisting of several modules made of videos, documents, hands-on labs and quizzes. Finally, quests are similar, but are usually shorter and contain only labs.
