simulators, and how does this technology impact learning?
Our instructors embraced simulation from the start, and new instructors quickly see its benefits as a learning tool. As technology has advanced, even experienced operators who have been in the field for decades now embrace simulation. Students today expect more hands-on, projectbased learning, and simulators increase engagement, which leads to better learning outcomes.
The immersive nature of simulation helps students retain skills, and by monitoring metrics like bucket fills, instructors can offer detailed feedback. Using simulators accelerates learning significantly and prepares students for real-world equipment with greater confidence.
We’ ve worked hard to provide access to training for disadvantaged groups, including those in rural areas, correctional facilities and underrepresented minorities. Our partnerships and mobile training capabilities allow us to bring simulators to places where people may not otherwise have access. This
opens doors for groups like women and minorities, helping them enter the skilled trades and secure highpaying jobs.
Q: Does simulation help break down barriers in CTE construction training?
Simulators are a fantastic tool
Q: Does simulator technology empower underrepresented groups and encourage them to enter the trades?
With their trailer mounted simulation training system and CM Labs Simulations Vortex Studio, Baker Technical Institute is able to provide training across a broad region at a lower cost than transporting heavy equipment.
BUT WE LEAVE YOU THE PLEASURE OF DISCOVERING IT
