Presentation:

At the forefront of innovation in educational solutions for technological and vocational training, ERM and Mimbus have developed a career guidance tool for manual trades and SAP using virtual reality.

Discover combines a hardware environment incorporating the latest 3D technologies (VR headsets) with career discovery scenarios designed in collaboration with training experts in the professions/technologies covered in the scenario.

This virtual reality module is ideal for:

  • Raising public awareness of different manual or service trades through a realistic immersive experience
  • Boosting recruitment in the sector through virtual reality

Take advantage of short, easy-to-use scenarios to give your candidates a realistic experience. You can even assess their skills using the VULCAN LMS.

Thanks to virtual reality, candidates are immersed in real-life working conditions and experience sensations that may inspire them to pursue a career in the field.

Virtual Construction comes with accompanying digital documents, including:

  • Installation and user manuals
  • Vulcan training space (management of learner activities and results).

General information about virtual reality:

In recent years, virtual reality has been increasingly used in industry in a variety of ways.

1) Driving/piloting simulation: The best-known applications of virtual reality, driving simulation stations allow the end user's experiences to be validated by combining the physical and the virtual.

2) Optimization of industrial designs: Anticipating and preparing all operations related to the process and product during its life cycle: Virtual reality makes it possible to improve and validate mountability, and to anticipate and validate the feasibility of operations such as servicing or maintenance.

3) Ergonomic design of production workstations: Virtual models make it possible to anticipate musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), accelerate the workstation design process, detect risks and malfunctions, and encourage teams to take ownership of their workstations.

4) Training in technical movements and situations: Virtual reality training applications enable:

  • Acquisition of the best technical movement/decision through the use of multi-criteria analysis
  • Improve the quality of training by simulating the learning of techniques and skills.
  • Optimize investment (usage time), reduce clutter in the technical platform, and lower labor costs.

Professions covered:

  • Line management: Maintenance operations on an automated production line in the context of industrial professions
  • Refrigeration engineer: Checking the tightness of a refrigeration circuit using refrigeration equipment in industrial occupations
  • Poultry cutting in food industry occupations
