Azure Lab Services is retiring. CloudLabs is the Microsoft-recommended alternative – Move your labs
CloudLabs Courses ties prose, video, quizzes, hands-on labs, and automated step checks into one continuous learner journey. Two engines under one roof, the EDU semester engine for higher-ed curriculum, and the ISV partner-certification engine for product-led credentialing.

The Course Anatomy
Build the entire learner journey in one place. Mix prose, video, quizzes, hands-on labs, and automated step checks. Issue certificates the moment learners pass.
The container. Multi-week or multi-month, self-paced or cohort-driven, with start dates and prerequisites.
Themed sections that group content. Mix prose, video, code samples, and downloadable resources.
A real cloud environment, in-browser, with guided steps and live infrastructure on Azure, AWS, GCP, or Oracle.
Quizzes, written exercises, and lab-based assessments with automated step checks for objective grading.
Auto-issued on completion. Branded, verifiable, and ready to share on LinkedIn or push to your LMS.
What You Get
From semester-long curriculum to partner-engineer certification, CloudLabs ships the building blocks course teams reach for first.
Modules, sub-modules, and mixed media in one curriculum. Content, labs, quizzes, assessments, and certificates flow as a single program.
Built for institutions running multi-week curriculum. Auto-grade pass-back to your LMS, roster sync, and section-level reporting.
Used by ISVs to certify partner engineers on the ISV product. White-label, brandable, with verifiable credentials.
Sections, cohorts, instructor assignments, and progress dashboards. Track every learner without spreadsheet sprawl.
Two Engines, One Platform
CloudLabs runs two distinct course motions. Same authoring experience, different outcomes.
For higher education. Designed around the academic calendar. Faculty design once, the engine runs the semester, the LMS gets the grades.
Inside the Authoring Experience
Drag prose, video, hands-on labs, quizzes, and step checks onto the curriculum canvas. Reorder modules, set prerequisites, and define exactly what complete means for each learner.
Content Blocks
Drag prose, video, hands-on labs, quizzes, and step checks onto the curriculum canvas. No rigid templates — just the right content in the right order for your learners.
Authoring Tools
Reorder modules, set prerequisites, and define exactly what complete means for each learner. Every change is versioned and every collaborator sees the same canvas.
