The labour shortage in Canada is being driven by two trends:

Too few training and apprenticeship opportunities for people entering the workforce
Too many skilled people leaving the workforce.
Training capacity for in-demand jobs is not keeping pace with the needs of Canada’s workforce, and impacting several sectors of Canadian economy:

Reduced demand for some jobs in natural resource sections
Demand increase for green sector jobs
Forecasted upskilling requirements for people already working skilled trades
Disruptions to the construction industry which contribute to Canada’s ongoing housing shortage

To address the issue of training new workers, immersive solutions provide an attractive alternative to existing
training and skills development approaches.

Calian developed an immersive training solution for joint terminal attack controllers (JTACs) that integrates automated voice recognition technology in a virtual reality (VR) device.

From onboarding new staff to up-skilling experienced hires, our learning solutions prepare your team for whatever you need.
