ABOUT VIROO
It is a complete solution that enable to train several units based in different locations but in the same large-scale virtual environment, improves the individual, team and unit-level performance in real situations, but also reduces the investment in physical replicas and even the expenses of bringing the units together to one location for training.
In the nuclear sector, GEH is already using it for training complex processes contributing to the improvement of professionals’ capabilities and the reduction of both costs and risks. VIROO enables workers to train in fuel movement operations, using a physical replica of the necessary equipment connected directly to the virtual environment.
ABOUT ETSA
The European Training and Simulation Association (ETSA) represents the continent’s training and simulation community and provides an environment for users and suppliers to exchange opportunities, ideas, information and strategies on training and simulation technology and methodology.
The group brings together all those that have a professional interest in improving the effectiveness of training and training related interoperability, standard and codes of practice.
