that dynamically adapts the course according to
the learner's existing knowledge base, skill gaps,
preferred cadence and learning style, taking personalized
and adaptive learning to a new level. The use of
Virtual Reality provides a new dimension, immersing
learners into an intuitive, interactive and virtual
environment. This approach is especially effective
for training in assembling, maintenance, intervention,
operations, and more particularly in critical environments
such as Medicine, Aerospace, Nuclear applications,
Oil industries, Pharmacy, etc.
“Simulation Based
Training is the fastest growing iLearning market
segment. While this trend was reserved for Fortune
500 organizations able to incur the significant
cost associated with Virtual Reality developments
and systems, our new partnership will allow creating
training environments while keeping development
costs under control.” said Claude Frasson, President
and CEO of VAI.
“VAI is a very
dedicated new partner for Virtools, and they will
definitely take advantage of the Virtools technology
for their various non immersive or immersive innovative
eLearning projects. The experience provided by
their Concave wall using the Virtools Software
Suite is impressive and highly beneficial to us,
as it is highly representative of the Virtools
VR Pack capabilities, as well as a great showroom” said
Virgile Delporte, VP Sales Americas.
