Mitsubishi Electric has been providing practical training in elevator installations at the training facilities of associated companies in Japan and overseas. Due to the increasing scale of the global markets for elevators and escalators, the company is facing a shortage of installation technicians, so it urgently needs to expand the scale and expertise of its installation workforce.
The new facility will be part of a highly practical and effective new training system. The new curricula will include working in realistic mock installation sites and safety awareness will be enhanced through training incorporating virtual-reality (VR) and augmented-reality (AR) technologies. As a result, the company expects to realize accelerated education focusing on user and technician safety and installation quality.
