How Skillify Works
Everything you need to know about labs, credits, sessions, and learning paths.
Each lab provisions a real cloud environment for you in seconds. You get a terminal in your browser with access to pre-configured systems. Complete the objectives, and our validation engine checks your solution against production-grade criteria. No installs, no setup — just open and start.
Credits are consumed when you launch a lab session. Your plan includes a set number of labs and credits per billing cycle. Explorer: 2 labs + 20 credits. Practitioner: 40 labs + 450 credits. Specialist: 100 labs + 1500 credits. Unused credits do not roll over.
Lab sessions have a fixed duration that is the same across all plans. Your environment stays available for the full session duration. If you need more time, you can restart the lab (this uses another lab slot and credits). Session data is not preserved between restarts.
Learning Paths are structured sequences of labs that take you from beginner to job-ready in a specific domain (Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, etc.). Each path has defined objectives and milestones. Learning Paths are available on Practitioner and Specialist plans.
