From education to entertainment, engineering to manufacturing, design and technology to marketing, hospitality and healthcare – immersive digital technologies, such as Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR) - are changing the way we experience the world.

​

Our workshops offer people of all ages and from all backgrounds unique opportunities to discover these new technologies, to help people develop an essential blend of digital and creative / artistic skills essential to getting ahead.

Working with Schools, Colleges & Charities

Bridging the digital & creative skills gap

Many organisations are reporting a shortage of suitable candidates who have both creative and digital skills.
 

We believe the only way to bridge this skills gap is to work directly with educators - like you -to provide learners of all abilities and from different backgrounds with opportunities to be excited and inspired by these new technologies.

​

That's why we're working with schools, colleges and charities to:  
 

  • Offer on-site dedicated immersive technology workshops covering: digital storytelling techniques, 3D modelling, designing in VR, through to AR app design.
     

  • Enable you to access and use immersive experiences to supplement and enhance learning.
     

  • Help you to achieve a return on investment from, and offer expert advice on, any immersive tech you have purchased.

​

We're also proud to be an Arts Award Supporter (see below for more details).
