Hands-on Labs

VMworld offers two types of hands-on labs – instructor-led labs offered at scheduled times throughout the day and self-paced labs where you can drop-in at any time throughout the day.

The labs provide an opportunity to explore the newest VMware software in a practical, hands-on setting. Sessions will include developing virtualization solutions for security, test and development, virtual desktop infrastructure, disaster recovery and more.

The VMworld 2008 Schedule Builder and Content Catalog are now available online. Each attendee can only sign up for a maximum of 2 instructor-led lab sessions. Please be sure to check back as updates will be made on a regular basis.
