Dublin, Ohio [July 7, 2022] – HoloPundits, experts in immersive technology including AR, VR and mixed reality, is excited to announce its partnership with Tolles Career and Technical Center to help take their Career Exploration Academy to a new level.
Tolles, located in Plain City, Ohio (outside of Columbus), offers high school students career-technical and academic programs including Agricultural & Environmental, Arts & Communication, Business, Finance & Marketing, Construction Technologies, Education & Training, Health Sciences and Hospitality Services. Tolles’ Career Exploration Academy, a year-long program offering high school sophomores opportunities and experiences for personal growth and career exploration, traditionally used 2D videos to give students glimpse of what a potential career might entail. Because of COVID and other limitations, the team at Tolles quickly realized it needed something more “real-life.” Tolles partnered with immersive technology experts HoloPundits, who created 360○ interactive career exploration videos to help enhance the experience of students and educational programs as a whole.
“The videos have hotspots that allow potential students to engage in on-the-job opportunities to gain real work experience and understand workplace expectations,” said Cindy Alderman, Marketing Director at Tolles Career and Technical Center. “We operate under the mantra of ‘Lift All Students’ and have a vision of being the choice of students and families for expert career-technical and academic education. These interactive videos are helping to make this vision a reality.”
Tolles’ career exploration content will be offered for sale to other career and technical centers in the marketplace on XR Guru, a product by HoloPundits. XR Guru is a next generation education and training application designed to bring learning, content creation, and distribution together into one easy-to-use platform.
