Fantastic Voyage Labs Announces the Launch of Destination Lab, a Virtual Reality Training Platform for the Life Sciences Industry
Skilled labor shortage has reached critical levels with 75% of employers globally reporting difficulties hiring adequately trained personnel with healthcare and life sciences being one of the industries most affected by the lack of a skilled workforce. Fantastic Voyage Labs (FVL) is launching Destination Lab, a solution to reduce the shortage of skilled laboratory personnel providing employers with a training program to rapidly onboard and upskill their workforce and enabling students to master hands-on skills for careers in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or clinical laboratory sectors.
Destination Lab, is the first element of FVL's adaptive learning platform designed to train laboratory personnel for jobs in the healthcare industry through a series of virtual reality (VR) simulations, where the trainees have access to a state-of-the-art life-like virtual lab to master real skills in a safe, stress-free environment without ever stepping into an actual lab. Guided by Celly, the virtual instructor, trainees receive real-time feedback, step-by-step guidance, and adaptive instruction tailored to their progress.
