Ever wanted to explore more about a career choice before pursuing it?

​

Now you have the opportunity with Virtual Reality!

WHAT IS VIRTUAL REALITY?

VR is a simulated experience created through the use of computers and hardware technology. Users are immersed into a fully interactive 3D environment. No more looking through computer screens, you will feel as though you are on the job site.

WHY TRY VIRTUAL REALITY?

Our clients will be able to gain hands-on experience before ever stepping foot into the field. This is a great way to see if you are truly interested in the field you have chosen. We currently have 15 programs available, with more being released ever year.
