XVR Simulation-LearnPro Merger Brings VR to More Customers

XVR Simulation and LearnPro eFireService have merged to provide virtual reality and e-learning solutions for the health, fire, police and other emergency services. The combined software suite provides a platform for e-learning management, an authoring tool, competency reporting, and training, including an immersive virtual reality simulation training platform.

The combined business has a focus on public sector organisations where training is essential to maintain and improve skills and knowledge, and together they will have over 450 fire, police and health customers in over 50 countries. The suite of products are used by leading public sector institutions to train over 300,000 emergency service and health care staff each year.

The newly formed group will be led by Joost Beerthuis, CEO of XVR Simulation, supported by the founders of LearnPro eFireService, Christine Blaydon, Stewart Walters, and Neil Colling.

Commenting on the merger, Joost Beerthuis, CEO XVR Simulation, stated: “The challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, with training face-to-face or in a group significantly restricted, have reinforced to our customers the value of technology-driven training, delivered in a flexible manner. The combined business is well placed to invest in new products to support our customers as we launch new products such as XVR Expo and WorkforcePro.”
