|  | VIRTUAL TRAINING PARTNERS Virtual Training Partners (VTP) is a pioneer in the delivery of corporate training in 3D Virtual Platforms such as Second Life. 3D Virtual Platforms are Internet-based, multi-user environments where participants create computer-generated characters, also known as avatars. These avatars can attend training programs, participate in group experiences, and collaborate with one another in a completely interactive community. According to a research report from Forrester, by 2012, “3-D Virtual Platforms will be as important for work as the Web is today.” 3D Virtual Platforms will achieve this status by providing: - Cost Savings comparable to other online training;
- Participant Engagement similar to the face-to-face classroom experience;
- Workplace Efficiency gained through desktop training; and
- Virtual Team Collaboration for employees from different geographies and cultures.
VTP offers the following services: - Content Delivery: For those organizations that have already made an investment in a virtual platform, VTP provides over 50 hours of live training content on subjects including Negotiation, Influencing Sales, Leadership, and Team Alignment.
- Content Development: VTP works with organizations to effectively adapt their current online or face-to-face training content to take full advantage of the virtual environment.
- Virtual Platform Consulting: If a company has not yet implemented a virtual platform, VTP leverages it relationships with industry leaders to assist companies in making technology decisions, performing cost/benefit analysis, and providing orientation programs.
