CITB’s aim is to develop a scope of requirements including a full end-to-end design of all associated requirements (hardware, software procurement and development, hosting and systems integration as well as other related peripherals such as power usage and internet connectivity) required to install and maintain a suite of XR technologies (e.g. immersive spaces/rooms, simulators/simulation, VR, AR and MR) designed to deliver known learning outcomes and objectives for apprenticeships and commercial courses. Learning outcomes may include – vocational trade-specific training, personal development, health and safety and hazard awareness (in construction and the built environment) The current budget for years 25-26 is £1m with the expected contract length to be 3+1 years and estimated total value of the contract being £4m approx. dependant on customer take up and budgetary approvals to continue.
