Built for recruiting and training
Start with a job-fair demo. Expand into full apprenticeship and safety training. One platform, many high-value use cases.
Training that scales
Unlimited practice space without machine availability, weather constraints, or job-site scheduling.
Infinite access to equipment
Learn how to operate equipment such as the VARIMAT 700, TRIAC, and hand roller safely and repeatedly without wear and tear.
Training that resonates with today’s roofers
Modern, engaging training modules that appeal to new talent and support efficient onboarding.
The compelling way to attract and train roofers
Roofskills Academy enables learners to practise essential roofing workflows, from safety and setup to membrane welding, inside a realistic virtual environment. Our VR headsets allow free movement and natural tool interaction without the risks of working at height or handling heated tools.
Developed to meet industry-relevant roofing workflows
Roofskills Academy is developed together with roofing experts and trainers. Each module focuses on the steps that matter on real roofs: clear sequences, visual guidance, and repeatable practice.
Learners can progress from guided exercises to more independent practice, giving instructors a reliable way to build skills before sending crews onto live projects.
Customize metrics to create your story
Track how learners progress through each workflow and identify where support is needed. Metrics such as welding consistency, completion times, and error patterns offer a clear picture of skill development and help you communicate training results to internal stakeholders.
