In their recent article, “Seeking a Solution to the Skilled Labor Shortage? XR Marks the Spot,” BCG puts a spotlight on one of the biggest issues industries face today: a growing gap between the demand for skilled workers and the availability of qualified talent.
The solution? Extended Reality training - and not just as a tech experiment, but as a practical, scalable tool for workforce development. This is where Fynd CORE comes in.
A Shift in How We Train
BCG argues that traditional training methods simply can’t keep pace with today’s needs. Industries like manufacturing, logistics, defense, and utilities rely on hands-on experience, but physical equipment, locations, and instructors are limited.
On top of that, younger workers are digital natives. They expect training to be as interactive and intuitive as the rest of their digital lives. That’s why XR training stands out. It enables organizations to simulate real-world tasks and environments in virtual space - making it easier to onboard, upskill, and retain talent at scale.
From Insight to Action: How Fynd CORE Makes XR Work
At Fynd Reality, we’ve built Fynd CORE to bridge the exact gap BCG outlines. It’s a cloud-based, no-code XR platform that allows teams to create and deliver immersive training - quickly, flexibly, and without the need for custom development or technical expertise.
BCG points out three key benefits of XR in closing the skills gap. Fynd CORE directly supports all three:
-
Speeding up onboarding – Users can train on repeatable, guided scenarios at their own pace.
-
Preserving institutional knowledge – Experts can quickly turn real-world procedures into digital training content - no coding needed.
-
Reaching remote or distributed teams – Fynd CORE runs on VR headsets, desktops, and tablets, making training accessible, repeatable, and effective—anytime, anywhere.
Built for the Real World
BCG notes that adoption of XR solutions still faces barriers - cost, complexity, and content development. That’s exactly why Fynd CORE exists
We’ve removed those roadblocks:
-
No-code scenario builder
-
Cloud-based deployment
-
Real-time updates and collaboration
-
Compatibility across industries and devices
From fire and rescue to industry and defense, our partners are already using Fynd CORE to train more effectively - without waiting for costly, large-scale rollouts.
The Future of Workforce Training Is Immersive
BCG's report is clear: to close the skilled labor gap, organizations need to embrace immersive learning technologies - and do it now. Fynd CORE makes that shift possible, without barriers.
