MIMBUS AND HP: DELIVERING A
TRANSFORMED EDUCATION IN MANUAL
SKILLS TRAINING
How VR is revolutionizing vocational training, making it efficient, cost effective and attractive for learners
Gone are the days of costly, time-consuming and dull training programs for trade skills in industries like construction, automotive,
aerospace and agriculture. MIMBUS, a leader in vocational training since 2010, provides a 21st century alternative to learning in
dusty workshops and factories and has removed the risk of trainees using dangerous industrial equipment. Combined with HP’s
education marketing expertise and VR-ready hardware, MIMBUS makes learning skills like carpentry, welding or operating sawmill
equipment quick, cost-eective and less risky. Even more, the experience is enjoyable and more impactful for students compared to
conventional training methods.
VULCAN IS THE ONLY PLATFORM THAT MANAGES ALL
SIMULATORS DEDICATED TO VOCATIONAL SKILLS
LEARNING
Without young people pursuing trade careers or businesses developing new skills
and techniques, cars can’t be manufactured, houses built, supermarket
warehouses re-stocked or food cultivated. But training trade skills has been
hindered by high costs, harsh industrial environments and production downtime
on expensive equipment.
MIMBUS has brought together a team of trainers, work psychologists and
technology experts to develop a VR platform and portfolio of tools to tackle the
challenges industry faces in recruiting and training skilled sta.
VULCAN® is the only platform that connects with and manages a wide range of VR
training programs and simulators dedicated to vocational skills learning. It is a
secure, cloud-based, scalable and customizable application for controlling
enterprise-wide, group and individual learning. Trainers can plan, track, analyze
and assess learning progress and outcomes. VULCAN also integrates with existing
virtual learning or LMS environments.
Alongside VULCAN, WOOD-ED TABLE, and VIRTUAL INDUS, MIMBUS oers a
portfolio of 30 VR training applications.
MIMBUS supports businesses, corporate academies and training institutions to
deploy and manage learning solutions as well as developing bespoke training
programs.
