CM Labs Simulations, developer of Vortex training simulators, invites contractors, training professionals, and career and technical educators to a seminar and hands-on demo October 23 or 24, 2018 at the corporate headquarters of Conewago Enterprises, Hanover, Pa.

Conewago is a design-build general contractor serving clients throughout the mid-Atlantic region. The company has received numerous safety and training recognitions from industry groups, including Associated Builders and Contractors, National Ready-Mix Construction Association, Pre-Cast Concrete Institute, Tilt-Up Concrete Association, and the American Institute of Steel Construction. Using Vortex simulators to train crane operators for certification and to vet the skills of new hires, the general contractor has achieved a training cost savings of as much as 75% per trainee. 

CM Labs’ entire catalog of crane and earth-moving equipment training packs can run on a single Vortex Advantage simulator.

The six-hour seminar, with lunch provided, will be presented by Greg Smith, Project Manager for Conewago Enterprises, and Drew Carruthers, Construction Simulator Product Manger for CM Labs Simulations. Conewago is running Vortex training packs for Rough Terrain Crane, Crawler Crane, Excavator, and Wheel Loader. The contractor uses simulators as a safe, sustainable, and cost-effective approach to preparing operators for the work site.

The free education seminar will show:

• How organizations are improving skills acquisition and lower training costs with Vortex simulators.
• How simulators can be used for recruiting and assessing skills.
