CM Labs Reinforces Commitment to Advancing Career and Technical Education Through Cutting-Edge Simulation Training Solutions

With a series of campaigns culminating in its participation at the ACTE Conference, CM Labs cements its dedication to CTE educators.

MONTREAL, QC, October 24, 2024—CM Labs Simulations, the leading vendor for simulation-based training solutions for heavy equipment operation, today announced its continued commitment to advancing Career and Technical Education (CTE). Through a series of strategic initiatives, CM Labs is highlighting how simulation can help educators increase industry awareness and student engagement, and provide more personalized training.

“At CM Labs, we’re passionate about empowering educators and training professionals to deliver the highest level of instruction,” said Lisa Barbieri, CM Labs’ VP of Marketing & Strategic Partnerships. “Our dedication to the CTE community drives us to continually innovate, ensuring our training technology is aligned with the evolving needs of the education market.”

During the month of December, CM Labs will exhibit at ACTE’s CareerTech VISION Expo, where it will showcase its latest simulation solutions designed specifically for heavy equipment training.

“We are a training technology company at our core, and our products are engineered to elevate heavy equipment training,” added Barbieri. “Working with organizations like ACTE and engaging directly with the education community is a natural fit for us because we see firsthand the impact that cutting-edge simulation technology can have on students’ success.”

To experience CM Labs’ next-generation instructor tools first-hand, visit booth 601 at ACTE’s CareerTech VISION Expo, taking place from December 4 -7 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, TX.

On October 16, CM Labs held a webinar with the support of ACTE (Association for Career and Technical Education). During the webinar, “Energize Your Heavy Equipment Operator Program: Increase student engagement while reducing incident risks,” industry experts discussed how simulation impacts CTE programs. Doug Dalton, President of Baker Technical Institute, voiced his experiences with simulation during the discussion.

“I couldn’t imagine building a heavy equipment operator school without simulators,” Dalton said. “The cost of running the program would easily be three times higher without them.” The webinar is now available on demand.

In addition to this exclusive webinar, CM Labs has also published two blog posts discussing best practices for using simulation training technology in CTE programs, Using Simulation for Work-Based Learning in Construction CTE and Construction CTE Insider Explains How Simulation Technology Revolutionizes the Industry.
