Interplay Learning, founded in 2016, develops a training platform that uses 3D simulations and Virtual Reality to deliver hands-on instruction for skilled trades. Its technology covers disciplines including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, solar, and facilities maintenance - sectors where practical proficiency is critical and traditional classroom methods can fall short.
The company's Comersive Learning platform is designed to compress the time it takes for a trainee to move from beginner to job-ready competence through immersive, simulated environments. To date, over 600,000 people worldwide have been trained using the system. Interplay partners with industry leaders and educational institutions to align its curricula with real-world workforce demands.
The firm has been recognised with multiple AHR Expo Innovation Awards and was named to Forbes' list of America's Best Startup Employers. Its stated mission is to build better training, better careers, and better lives for the skilled trades workforce.
