Inspiring Future Tradespeople: SimSpray Go Engages Students at Aaniiih Nakoda Career Expo

VRSim is proud to share the recent success of the Finishing Trades Institute of the Upper Midwest (FTIUM) at the inaugural Aaniiih Nakoda Workforce Expo, held on the Fort Belknap Reservation. This landmark event attracted nearly 600 high school students and over 60 vendors, including colleges, the military, and trade organizations, providing invaluable exposure to diverse post-secondary opportunities.

A highlight of the expo was the opportunity for students to experience VRSim’s SimSpray Go virtual painting simulator. Designed for portability and ease of use, SimSpray Go allowed students to engage in hands-on spray painting simulations, offering a realistic glimpse into the finishing trades. John M. Burcaw, Chief Administrative Officer at FTIUM, praised the technology and the overall event on social media.

This collaboration underscores the shared commitment of VRSim and FTIUM to innovative towards inclusive education. By bringing advanced training tools like SimSpray Go to underserved communities, we aim to inspire the next generation of skilled tradespeople and broaden access to rewarding career paths.
