"This immersive simulation enables learners to familiarize themselves with essential equipment controls, material management and safety protocols in a realistic, controlled environment," says Simformotion Vice President Vanessa Price.Simulators offer a safe, cost-effective training solution for heavy equipment operator training programs. Students and operators can train anytime and anywhere using simulations without the need to take a costly machine out of production or worry about the weather. Additionally, the Cat Simulators VR Paving system adds flexibility to programs because it is portable and easy to move from a training room to a trailer to satellite locations.
"Operators in the paving industry often face the dual challenges of high employee turnover rates and the need for effective, hands-on training.

The interactive, turn-key training curriculum features instructor course guides, learner guides, videos, quizzes and more.
