Simulation Training Comes To UK Construction Event

CM Labs Simulations recently presented at Vertikal Days last week, showing its training solutions for mobile and tower cranes and mobile elevating work platforms, which can be used for operator training, assessment, and certification preparation.

"With skilled operator shortages putting pressure on the construction industry, employers are challenged to bring new operators into the workforce while providing the practical experience needed to work safely and productively," said Lisa Barbieri, VP of Marketing and Strategic Partnerships at CM Labs. "Simulation gives us an opportunity to rethink how we prepare people for these critical jobs, which is what makes that moment so exciting for us. We're proud to bring that approach to Vertikal Days and to show the U.K. market what the future of operator training can look like."

Attendees were able to view and ask about the company's equipment operation assessment scenarios, which are aligned with Construction Plant Competence Scheme (CPCS) certification requirements. 

CM Labs also demonstrated its Intellia Workforce Training System, including a Rough Terrain Crane training simulation on an Advantage Simulator. The company also highlighted the features of Intellia Instructor, including Action After Review, which lets trainers record and review sessions with timestamps on key events to track trainee progress.
