Meeting Pattern

Description

Immerse yourself in innovative career exploration with our professional development-level course on Virtual Reality (VR) for Career Exploration for K-12 classrooms. This innovative class leverages the use of CareerViewXR, an immersive career exploration platform that brings field trips to the classroom through 360-degree web-based tours and companion virtual reality videos.

Participants will engage in environments tailored to different industries and gain firsthand experiences and insights into the day-to-day realities of diverse careers. Through guided virtual tours, educators will develop a deep understanding of industry-specific challenges, opportunities, and requisite skills. This learning experience will culminate in the redesign and integration of career curriculums, ultimately enhancing students' career awareness.

Join us at the forefront of career development as we harness the power of VR to redefine how students prepare for their futures.
