To overcome Internet connectivity and bandwidth issues while conducting regional and on site training for these geographically dispersed web content managers, OIT developed and configured an eight student/one instructor mobile computer/server lab that a instructor and IT assistant can take with them. This short talk will present the thought process behind the mobile lab development from procuring the mobile lab carrying cases and mobile laptop computers that served as student and instructor workstations to building the mobile server and simulating an Internet network and the actual user's Adobe Contribute Publishing server/client environment. The laptops' configuration/ghosting strategies will be covered as well as will the design that allowed for speedy lab setups and breakdowns. And of course, actual experiences and lessons learned using the mobile lab will be shared as well. }} [[Category: NETC08 Session]] [[Category: Course Management Systems]]
