Now Available in Lincoln, Omaha, and Norfolk: PEDCO’s Career QuestXR Job Exploration Program
No matter how old you are, choosing a career can be one of the toughest, scariest decisions. It’s even harder when you aren’t sure what you want to do or what kind of jobs exist out there. Whether you’re in school, trying to find work, underemployed, or decades deep into a career, planning your next move can feel overwhelming. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to try on several different jobs at a time to see how they fit?
PEDCO can help you do exactly that, thanks to our new extended reality (XR) work exploration program, Career QuestXR. Career QuestXR combines Transfr virtual reality (VR) headsets and zSpace augmented reality (AR) technology into an immersive environment that offers fun, hands-on simulations of on-the-job scenarios, as well as rotatable 360-degree views of important tools and concepts.
Test drive jobs across a variety of industries. Whether that means repairing a broadband tower, fixing an engine, restoring power to a city, strategizing a marketing campaign, designing a town, assisting with surgery, or interacting with a job scenario of your choosing, you can discover firsthand which careers you might enjoy—and which ones you’d rather say “No thank you” to.
PEDCO’s new Career QuestXR program is currently available to Native Americans aged twelve and older at tribal offices in Lincoln, Norfolk, and Omaha. To serve you the best possible experience, participation involves a brief questionnaire to help you discover career opportunities and explore jobs that match your unique blend of strengths and interests.
