Order a Personal Lab

Personal Lab is a dedicated lab environment for educators to explore sample solutions, teach in class, or review student work. You can purchase different tiers of lab hours based on your need. If you use up your lab hours, you can top up to extend the access. Unlike trial version, your files in the personal lab will be kept.

Once purchased, lab hours cannot be exchanged for another tier or refunded. Please confirm your selection before placing an order.
