Our Computer Training Lab is for instructor-led events that require students to access a computer and follow the instructor. The lab (SB12) is located in the Sub-basement Level of the CGIS Knafel building, and is only open during requested reservation times. (The above picture is out of date and does not represent our current room)
The room has 22 student machines and one instructor machine. A ceiling-mounted projector is connected to the instructor machine by default, but a hookup to another computer, such as a laptop, is also available. The room has several whiteboards and an additional tables for handouts.
The computers are OptiPlex 7460 AiO's running Windows 11. Login authentication for the computers uses University authentication. While Lab access is not required, it can benefit class participants who need to do follow-up work in our main lab. If your event includes those who are not affiliated with Harvard, we also provide guest accounts.
