VR for Career Exploration & Learning

Learn how using Virtual Reality (VR) as an innovative addition to work-based learning that can help maximize the results of youth work experience and prepare candidates for long-term career pathways. By offering hands-on simulation-based training, VR can help youth develop the skills they need to secure livable wage jobs in high-demand fields, such as construction, manufacturing, healthcare, transportation, distribution & logistics, automotive & aviation, and hospitality & tourism.

By leveraging VR technology to offer immersive training experiences, employers and educators can help bridge the skills gap and prepare young people for high-demand jobs in these industries. VR simulations can provide a safe, low-risk environment for learners to practice and refine their skills, without the need for costly equipment or materials. Additionally, VR can be used to introduce learners to a wider range of career options and opportunities, and to provide them with a realistic understanding of what the work involves.
