On Demand Courses / Offline Student Guide

Hi,

With the On Demand course format, do you get to download the course materials / student guide for continued reference offline after the 30 day period has expired?

Thanks

Martin

Please check the documents on this page: VMware On Demand Support Documents

Thank you for the link scott28tt.

Sadly, none of the links off of that that page clarify whether the course materials/student guide/etc are made available for use after the course has ended, so I will assume they are not.

I see you are a VMware employee, if are you working for @VMwareEducation please can you clarify the situation any further?

It would be nice if the course descriptions included this information as well.

I heard that previously some courses included a VitalSource voucher code for downloading the course materials as a eBook? Do you know if this is still the case?

All the best,

Martin

No I do not work in the Education part of the business.

Perhaps you could email edulabsupport@vmware.com (as mentioned in the documents)

Thank you again.

I did see the email address, but assumed it was for those who had already signed up and were having issues with the course.

Q: How do I contact technical support if I encounter any issues while completing my course?
A: Please send your support query to Edulabsupport@vmware.com.

I have decided not to go down the On Demand route.

Instead I am going to try the Live Online ILT. It's the same cost and I still don't need to travel, but at least I get to ask the instructor questions; whether I get any offline course materials remains to be seen.

Cheers.
