Why Metaverse?

Evolving technology and the pandemic have changed the way we work. Technology has become the backbone of remote work, training, and onboarding effectiveness. The Metaverse is a concept that has been gaining momentum in recent years, as technology continues to advance at an unprecedented rate.

It refers to a shared virtual space that is created by the convergence of physical and virtual reality. It is a place where people can interact with each other and digital objects in a way that blurs the line between the real and virtual worlds. It provides a fresh digital world to collaborate, solve problems, and practice in, with an interactive engagement method. It can be used to virtualize different kinds of training, so let us tell you how we use VR and AR to provide a powerful vehicle for more meaningful learning.

Learning in the metaverse

We believe the metaverse has the potential to address the existing challenges to remote education and training. By adding a virtual dimension to our online training track, you can meet trainers (their avatars), communicate with them, and retain in-person interaction. You will therefore regularly meet in the virtual space at a certain hour, for follow up, coaching or ask the trainer for more explanation.

Utilizing avatars, the metaverse enables communication and collaboration to become much more interactive. It helps students and trainers to connect to grow together.

Besides our technical focus, we also offer career coaching and soft skills training. Why? Metaverse avatars help in nurturing important skills, such as communication, teamwork, customer service, and people-facing skills. We will useaA specific application called 'Bodyswaps' to offer the possibility to do a role play with avatars. And thanks to additional speech recognition, you can have a conversation that is very close to a real conversation like for example: your future job interview.
