First we need to download VirtualBox software to run the image of the course.
First we will add the source list of VB to our host
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Then we will append the following line
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian xenial contrib
Press Ctrl+0 to save and Ctrl+X to close the file
Now, we need the Oracle public key
wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
And finally, we will updater the index and install VB
sudo apt update
sudo apt install virtualbox-5.1
For Windows platform, we only need to go the the VirtualBox site and download the executable.
You can find it here https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
