Wrap Technologies, Inc. is partnering with the Emergency Response Training & Certification Association (ERTCA) and the Mansfield University Public Safety Training Institute (MUPSTI) to educate Pennsylvania and New York law enforcement in virtual reality (VR) training technology.
ERTCA met with Pennsylvania Governor, Tom Wolf, in early December 2021 where ERTCA President, Eric Porterfield, announced the launch of the mobile platform that will begin traveling throughout Pennsylvania and Upstate New York in March 2022. The public safety Mobile Virtual Reality Experience (MVRE) will offer 36 credentialed VR training modules through the Wrap Reality platform, to municipal law enforcement departments and educational institutions.
Also supporting the MVRE collaboration project are AT&T, Blaise-Alexander, and the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PADE).
“Virtual reality is perhaps the most important tool educators have in leveling the playing field when it comes to in-service training,” said Chief Scott Henry, Director of MUPSTI’s ACT 120 program. “The MVRE program will be free to use. It will reach departments as small as two officers and as large as 100.”
