The NCLab LBD “Learn-By-Doing” Product

LBD is an online active teaching product that revolutionizes how people master new knowledge and skills. Unlike passive lectures or video-based training followed by exams, LBD engages learners every step of the way, through hands-on, practice-based exercises that confirm the mastery of each subject covered.

How Does LBD Training Differ from Lecture-Based Training?

In LBD training, you work at your own pace in a gamified environment with the help of bite-sized tutorials, examples, exercises, graded practical tasks, and quizzes. The lecturing is done by a task-based teaching platform that include exercises during which trainees receive instant feedback from the teaching platform. The platform provides trainees with much more hands-on practice than the traditional lecture + homework model and its format is excellent for remote instruction. 

Students Consistently Report:

Higher Engagement and Satisfaction

Learners describe the NCLab platform as motivating, intuitive, and refreshingly different from traditional instruction. The interactive, self-paced design empowers them to take ownership of their learning journey. They’re not passive recipients of information—they’re active problem solvers. This sense of agency, combined with immediate feedback and gamified tasks, leads to deep engagement and lasting satisfaction with the learning experience.

“I actually looked forward to learning. The format made me want to keep going.”

Improved Retention and Confidence

Because learners are constantly applying what they learn through hands-on exercises and real-time feedback, they retain knowledge longer and more deeply. Repeated practice builds true understanding—not just test-passing ability. This process naturally develops confidence: students see their own progress and know they’re capable of tackling real problems.

“I understood the material better than in any of my lecture-based courses. I didn’t just memorize—I could explain and apply it.”

Job-Ready Proficiency in Technical Skills

Rather than just learning theory, students develop practical skills aligned with workforce needs—such as Python programming, data analytics, file handling, visualization, and algorithmic thinking. By completing applied tasks, capstone projects, and real-world simulations, they graduate ready to contribute in professional environments.

“I feel qualified to walk into a job and start solving problems from day one.”
