"We listen to our customers and we know that better trained employees lead to less accidents, less waste and higher levels of learning and employee retention," stated Derek Fowler, Marketing & Contractor Training Manager at Owens Corning. "We sought out PIXO to bring this innovative turn-key solution to thousands of insulation contractors. With our product knowledge and PIXO's Reality Intelligence PlatformTM, it's a winning combination."

PIXO's Reality Intelligence PlatformTM, which fully integrates and operates with the enterprise Learning Management System (LMS), allows organizations to manage, track, and deploy training to headsets in any location for easy adoption of VR training in the field. The flexibility of the PIXO Platform has allowed Owens Corning to offer this valuable training solution to their thousands of contactors through their LMS, Lightspeed.

"We know that by training in VR, employees learn 4X as fast, reducing significant training costs, and increasing knowledge and skill retention by 80%, leading to a safer, more productive workforce," said Sean Hurwitz, CEO of PIXO. "Bringing people home to their families safely every night has always been the mission of PIXO, and that's why we developed the training platform. Partnering with companies like Owens Corning to seamlessly scale these solutions to their markets is another example of how we're accomplishing that mission."

The VR training solution will be available for purchase in late September and includes a Pico Neo 3 VR headset, a VR training library of 9 modules, and access to PIXO's Reality Intelligence PlatformTM used to manage trainee assignments and track results.
