All of the CBT Nuggets training you know and love is now hosted on Adept. It’s an entirely enhanced experience created by the CBT Nuggets team, designed with your success in mind.
When you provide feedback in the Adept platform, everyone sees it — from the CEO to engineers to project managers.
If it’s a bug, we’ll fix it. If it’s a feature request, it goes on the list. If you’re expressing discontentment (or excitement), we’ll reach out for more details.
Report bugs or other issues using the "Give feedback" button at the bottom of your screen. Let us know how you’re learning.
Introducing the new CBT Nuggets powered by Adept, where you'll find the latest training tools designed to help learners (you) and creators (trainers) achieve more.
What's new in Adept:
Immersive learning experience — Eliminate distractions with in-line videos and quizzes that test your knowledge while you train
New and improved courses from your favorite trainers — Including resources like images, code snippets, tables, text, downloads, polls, and advanced virtual labs
Better organization of your training library — Stay focused with a robust training dashboard
More labs mean more hands-on practice — Introducing Playground Labs, a brand-new tool that lets you build your own virtual lab environment from the ground up
This is only the beginning. Log in to read about the future of the Adept platform and CBT Nuggets.
These are our top feature priorities at the moment.
Autoplay videos. Now live! “Video Review Mode” allows you to sit back and auto-watch all the videos in a skill.
Saving video settings. If you change video quality or volume levels on one video, all videos will maintain those settings (just like you can now with video speed).
Caption formatting. We are working on formatting the video captions and transcripts right now and will have a better version very soon.
Advanced reporting. We are working on an API and integration with Retool so you’ll be able to see any data you like any way you like.
Team leaderboards. This was a fan favorite. We’re bringing it back.
Custom playlists. Wish you could create curated training lists for you or your team? Custom playlists are on the way.
Adept is our new training platform — built by CBT Nuggets. We’ve always put quality first. The best trainers. The highest quality training. And best-in-the-industry learning experience.
No, Adept is the platform that now powers CBT Nuggets training. We built it. Now you can help improve it. We’d love to hear what you think so we can continue to improve. Use the feedback button to report any bugs, or just to let us know what you think.
By default, skills are set to "Standard" layout. Once enrolled, use the drop-down menu found at the right of the "Start" button to select "Video Review" option. This will switch your skill layout to a single video player, which plays all of the videos in the skill (with the option of autoplay which is on by default when Video Review Mode is selected).
Training time in Adept is calculated when you complete quiz questions. Adept focuses on the skills you are gaining as you learn. Every skill has an estimated time to complete, to include labs, questions, text, and video. When you complete the quiz questions, you get credit for the time trained to that point.
Progress is tracked as you complete quiz questions. When you answer the first question in a skill, you will be enrolled and be able to pick back up where you left off.
By default all accounts, including individual accounts, on Adept are enabled for multi-user features. If you want to study with a friend, share reporting statistics, or have your training purchased by your company and tracked together, you can add users to your “organization”. You can also join one or more organizations to enable group reporting and management.
An organization manages any subscription they pay for and provide to their users. With Adept organizations, users can have license(s) to a company provided subscription, or no licenses and only train with the free content in Adept.
The session limit is now set at 24 hours and we are experimenting with longer limits. Labs initially did not have protection against misuse. We have since implemented a firewall for lab machines, monitoring of hardware use, and screen recording.
