Electrical apprentices must go through years of training under an experienced electrical contractor before working independently. They not only learn through classroom training but gain hands-on experience working under the supervision of a qualified electrician. ย
Mastery comes from repetition and one apprentice may need more practice in a certain area. Enter augmented reality training.
In the metaverse, electricians in training can have hands on experiences before they touch a real wire.ย ย
โImmersive, hands-on and augmented reality training experiences provide a safe and repeatable environment that will allow our industry to meet the substantial training needs for electrical apprentices,โ saidย Dale Crawford, Executive Director,ย Steel Tube Institute.ย ย
National Apprenticeship begins on November 13 and Dale is available to speak to the future of electrical training and how the metaverse can be a perfect addition to apprenticeship programs. ย
