Zero cost: Free hands-on labs allow users to gain experience with Linux without any financial investment. This makes it accessible to a wider range of users, including those who may not have the resources to purchase expensive training materials or equipment.

Hands-on experience: Hands-on labs provide a way for users to gain practical experience with Linux. This can be particularly useful for those who learn best by doing, as they can experiment with different commands and configurations and see the results in real time.

Flexible learning: Hands-on labs can be completed at any time, from anywhere with an internet connection. This allows users to learn at their own pace and on their own schedule, without the need to attend a class or training session.

No installation required: Some hands-on labs can be completed entirely in a cloud or virtual environment, which means that users don’t need to install any software on their local machine. This can be particularly helpful for those who don’t have the technical expertise to set up a Linux environment on their own.

Practical skills development: By completing hands-on labs, users can develop practical skills that are directly applicable to real-world scenarios. This can be particularly useful for those who are pursuing a career in IT, as it can help them build their resume and stand out to potential employers.
