I’m Raphaël Pinson, I’m a Senior
Technical Marketing Engineer at Isovalent.

00:00:04:15 – 00:00:06:16
So we started building this,

00:00:06:16 – 00:00:09:16
for the Chicago
KubeCon six months ago.

00:00:09:16 – 00:00:12:24
And the idea is that we have
a survey, people take a little survey, it’s a fun

00:00:12:24 – 00:00:14:11
survey where people get to find if they’re

00:00:14:11 – 00:00:17:11
more security,
more platform, or more networking.

00:00:17:17 – 00:00:21:07
Identifying to our eBees,
you know, the little bees that we identify with.

00:00:21:18 – 00:00:25:17
And so them through fun questions and

00:00:25:20 – 00:00:28:20
in the end, it says you’re more like
security network or platform,

00:00:28:26 – 00:00:31:13
and then they get a code
you get a five character code

00:00:31:13 – 00:00:32:19
and then they can enter

00:00:32:19 – 00:00:35:19
this code into one of the computers
that we have, to take Labs.

00:00:36:03 – 00:00:38:15
So here, this is my code, and see

00:00:38:15 – 00:00:41:15
because I’ve already completed Labs,
you get a little thing.

00:00:41:18 – 00:00:44:18
So, if one of our champions
actually comes and

00:00:44:18 – 00:00:45:23
enters the code that comes
with the survey

00:00:45:23 – 00:00:48:08
then they’ll get a little pop-up like this.

00:00:48:24 – 00:00:50:18
And then

00:00:50:18 – 00:00:53:02
we welcome them, we’re like, oh we

00:00:53:02 – 00:00:55:10
saw that you’re more of a security person,

00:00:55:10 – 00:00:57:13
so you can pick the Security Lab,
this is the Security Lab.

00:00:57:13 – 00:01:00:13
They can also choose if they want
to take another Lab,

00:01:00:22 – 00:01:02:21
and the Lab will start right away.

00:01:02:21 – 00:01:04:04
Or they can explore the map.

00:01:04:04 – 00:01:07:04
So the map is something we built last year,

00:01:07:12 – 00:01:10:23
and the map shows you for
your journey with the different Labs.

00:01:10:23 – 00:01:13:15
So we have about 30 Labs at the moment.

00:01:13:15 – 00:01:16:15
So you see here, there’s all of
the Labs that I’ve already completed.

00:01:16:29 – 00:01:18:10
And this is the free journey. So yeah.

00:01:18:10 – 00:01:19:25
So that’s the security journey,

00:01:19:25 – 00:01:23:18
because that’s what I got in the survey,
and it shows the security journey

00:01:23:18 – 00:01:24:27
goes through these Labs.

00:01:24:27 – 00:01:27:00
And if I want to take another
Lab I can just go here.

00:01:28:18 – 00:01:30:29
Because we already know the people

00:01:30:29 – 00:01:36:13
because they’ve taken the survey.
I can just direct the Lab like this with the code,

00:01:37:13 – 00:01:40:13
and that seemed to go live right away.

00:01:40:28 – 00:01:43:08
And then when you finish
the Lab here you get this…

00:01:43:08 – 00:01:45:12
oh this one is funny.

00:01:45:12 – 00:01:48:24
This one is fun because
we have like a Star Wars theme.

00:01:48:24 – 00:01:53:05
So one thing with Instruqt is that you can
actually tune with CSS.

00:01:53:14 – 00:01:55:18
So we had a little bit of fun

00:01:55:18 – 00:01:58:08
training the CSS animation for this.

00:01:58:08 – 00:02:00:28
So, you get a badge at the end,

00:02:00:28 – 00:02:04:17
and you can share it via email,
you can share it via LinkedIn.

00:02:04:18 – 00:02:09:17
We actually have physical versions of
the badges at the booths as stickers.

00:02:09:27 – 00:02:12:23
And we have a little, collector here

00:02:12:23 – 00:02:16:20
where you can put all the 27 badges
if you earn them,

00:02:16:20 – 00:02:20:12
and then if you earn more than 10,
we give you a little Lab Champion pin.

00:02:20:14 – 00:02:22:02
So it’s a whole gamification.

00:02:23:02 – 00:02:24:17
It’s just kind of a lot of fun.

00:02:24:17 – 00:02:26:11
A lot of people actually appreciate it.

00:02:26:11 – 00:02:29:20
And they, they tried to track the,
the badges and actually learn in the process.
