XR Virtual Collaboration Workshop
Master Virtual XR Collaboration In Your Workplace
To Improve Remote Work, Training and Education
Access to a VR headset required (Oculus Quest 2 preferred)
With video meetings and training becoming more the norm than the exception, the limits of collaborating at a distance with traditional tools have never been more apparent. Corporations, small businesses and individuals are turning to virtual and augmented reality (collectively known as XR) collaboration tools to solve remote work pain points. However, incorporating this technology into your business model can be daunting.
The AWE Academy has partnered with XR Consultant and Forbes columnist Charlie Fink to offer a comprehensive, effective evaluation of virtual collaboration platforms. In this workshop you will explore, experience and learn how to use 10 of the best virtual training and collaboration sites we’ve identified with over a year of research. Don’t miss this opportunity to accurately simulate work and training experiences in virtual reality, which can only be conducted in a group setting.
Previously offered only to corporate groups including Lockheed and Activision, this workshop is now open to the AWE community!
