I am taking the self paced course for ECMS-1. However, the pre-recorded class requires us to follow along as the instructor add devices, etc. 

Where does a student go to get access to devices so we can follow the class?

Hello,

are you talking about this course ?

Correct. Here are work we are being asked to take this class on our own. the link we were given to take this class is of the instructor actually adding devices, etc. So we will need to do the same and was hoping there is a lab environment out there that will allow us to participate along with this instructor and not just watch and listen?

Hello,

I don't have access to the course, so I am not really sure how they want you to add Meraki devices (I do know that you cannot do it in e.g. Packet Tracer). 

Actually, I opened a case at the Learning Network Store, hopefully they provide an answer. The course is not cheap. so you should be able to do more than just watch a pre-recorded video...

I'll let you know when I get an answer...

Hello,

I giot the answer below (obviously not what we need; I asked him to access the course himself, in order to see what we are talking about, hopefully they respond to that)...
