Labs are complete if you finish all of the lab's activities within the access time.
A lab might be listed as incomplete for any of the following reasons:
| Why your lab is not complete | What you can do |
|---|---|
| The timer counted down to zero before you finished doing all the tasks listed in the manual. |
We recommend that you read through the lab manual before you click Start Lab. This will give you a better idea of how to proceed. If the timer runs out before you finish, your work is not saved. You would need to take the lab again. |
| You didn't complete a required step. |
Check the lab manual to make sure that you have done everything. Tip: Open two windows on your screen, one with the lab manual and the other with the cloud console. Or use two monitors. |
| The lab uses Activity Tracking, and you did not get a high enough percentage of finished steps. | When lab authors set up Activity Tracking in a lab, they can specify a percentage of steps that you need to successfully finish in order to have the lab register as "complete". |
| You tried to pause the lab by clicking End Lab. |
You cannot pause a lab and finish it later. For more information, see What happens when you click END LAB. |
