Case Study: The Energy Training Academy expands training reach with ThingLink virtual tours

The Energy Training Academy - Customer Case Study

The Energy Training Academy, a social enterprise focused on renewable energy, faced a challenge attracting new heating engineers and providing up-to-date technical training. They needed to extend the reach of their physical Net Zero Home demonstration facility to a wider audience, including remote schools and potential trainees. To address this, they turned to vendor ThingLink to create a virtual tour.

Using ThingLink, the academy created an immersive virtual tour of their facility simply by capturing 360-degree images and adding interactive tags. This solution drastically increased engagement, allowing schools to take virtual field trips and industry professionals to use it as a reference. The tour served as a powerful marketing tool for ThingLink's client, leading to an increase in real-life visits and providing an easy-to-update resource that promotes renewable energy training.
