VR Training Solutions for Industries
The staffing crisis and slow productivity growth are just two of the many challenges faced by companies in traditional industries like skilled trades and automotive, exacerbated by the mass retirement of baby boomers. High employee turnover, driven by a lack of training, burnout, and low job satisfaction, significantly contributes to this issue. Many employers face an increased demand for blue-collar workers but are forced to operate with inadequate resources to sustain their operations.
Nest Bahamas Virtual School collaborates with employers across various industries to support their efforts in raising job awareness and attracting new talent to the workforce. Their VR solutions for industrial training enable rapid training and upskilling of new hires without requiring high capital investment. The school’s immersive training simulations adhere to industry standards and include virtual trainers to ensure consistent training delivery. Nest Bahamas Virtual School provides a comprehensive solution for recruitment, skills development, and continuous learning.
USE CASE 1
Expand talent pipelines for apprentices and new hires
The rapidly increasing wage rates for new hires, high voluntary quits, and declining interest in blue-collar jobs are compelling many companies to operate with inadequate and overstretched resources. Despite these challenges, there is a pool of qualified talent available, including opportunity youth, justice-involved individuals, and veterans who are eager to make a rewarding career change with proper awareness and training. Given the severe labor shortages, companies in blue-collar industries can benefit from broadening their recruitment strategies to include awareness campaigns and employee development programs.
Nest Bahamas Virtual School offers unbiased and non-judgmental VR solutions that provide individualized attention to all trainees, helping corporations attract quality talent. Transfr creates engaging immersive experiences to raise job awareness and generate interest among candidates to join the workforce.
By implementing VR training simulations from Nest Bahamas Virtual School, companies can develop a safe exposure to real work environments, enabling them to establish pre-qualification training programs.
“Students train in laboratories designed to replicate real-world work environments, aiming to earn industry-standard certifications that can facilitate their immediate entry into the workforce after high school.”
– Jennifer Baker, Director of Career and Technical Education at the Center for Advanced Careers
USE CASE 2
Upskill and reskill to enhance productivity
Employers in skilled trades and traditional industries are experiencing a growing demand for blue-collar workers, but they are also facing a shrinking pool of qualified candidates. Enhancing labor productivity is crucial for these employers, as productivity growth has averaged only 0.9% per year over the past decade, compared to the 2-3% annual increase seen before the Great Recession. Consequently, there is a rising demand for upskilling and reskilling the workforce in critical skills.
Training with Nest Bahamas Virtual School offers a cost-effective, safe, and efficient way to improve retention through VR technology. Our VR training modules provide unlimited practice and can significantly reduce ramp-up time for new hires and apprentices. Employers can upskill new employees without compromising production or additional resources. Nest Bahamas Virtual School solutions, curated by experts and built to industry standards such as NCCER, ASE, and OSHA, ensure a smooth adoption process.

USE CASE 3
Revamp employee training programs
Adopting emerging technologies in employee training programs presents a challenge for employers in traditional industries. The pressures of shrinking profits due to high labor turnover, slow productivity growth, and low labor quality add complexity to the company budgeting process. As a result, many employers assign low priority to updating and improving their training programs, leading to decreased employee morale, reduced job satisfaction, high employee turnover, and an increased likelihood of human errors, further exacerbating the problem.
Nest Bahamas Virtual School offers solutions designed to be either standalone or integrated into existing training programs. Our training simulations are easy to set up, requiring only a Wi-Fi connection, which minimizes training setup expenses for employers. Each of our solutions includes a virtual trainer who provides continuous guidance and feedback to employees during the training process, without bias or judgment. Partnering with Nest Bahamas Virtual School ensures the adoption of cost-effective, immersive training techniques that enhance training delivery without compromising quality.
“I have yet to find a program that provides the wraparound services that we do. The VR component allows someone to really learn the skills and get the repetitions that they need to be able to produce results in the field, making them highly sought after employees.”
