Graduate Professional Development course for North Dakota Educators
Immerse yourself in innovative career exploration with our graduate-level course on Virtual Reality (VR) for Career Exploration. This innovative class leverages the use of CareerViewXR, an immersive career exploration platform that brings field trips to the classroom through 360-degree web-based tours and companion virtual reality videos.
Participants will engage in environments tailored to different industries and gain firsthand experiences and insights into the day-to-day realities of diverse careers. Through guided virtual tours, educators will develop a deep understanding of industry-specific challenges, opportunities, and requisite skills. This learning experience will culminate in the redesign and integration of career curriculums, ultimately enhancing students' career awareness.
Join us at the forefront of career development as we harness the power of VR to redefine how students prepare for their futures.

The course is asynchronous, can be completed in a timeframe shorter than the semester (Aug-Dec) if desired, and graduate credit through NDSU’s Distance and Continuing Education may be applied for at the time of completion.
The course will take at least 15 hours with most lessons requiring VR exploration and reflection questions. If you are familiar with using a VR headset, your efforts will likely be less. The final assignment includes creating a presentation, sharing it with others in your building as well as an industry leader in your community and reflection.
Yes, a VR headset is needed for this course. We recommend using the headset that CVXR donated to your school in February 2024 as part of a statewide initiative to make immersive learning more accessible across the state of ND.
If the donated headsets are unavailable, you may use a personal VR headset or contact Jody French at jody@bemorecolorful.com for details on possible industry sponsorships available for headsets or how you can purchase a headset directly from CVXR.
If you are unable to use a VR headset due to health reasons, you may use the web version of CareerViewXR.
If you have any questions or problems, please contact Jody French at jody@bemorecolorful.com or Lisa Metzger at lisa@bemorecolorful.com.
Thank you for your interest! We began running a version of the course that is open to educators from any region in Jan. 2025. Learn more here.
