Silicon Saxony is providing support in particular with the needs assessment, the piloting of the planned training program and the qualification of training staff. <\/p>\n<p>At least 12 scalable XR learning scenarios (XR = Extended Reality: Augmented Reality\/Virtual Reality, AR\/VR) realistically depict safety-, cost- and time-critical cleanroom and production processes in VIRTUOS. An AI-supported bot accompanies the learners in a dialog-based manner, providing explanations, feedback and adaptive learning tips. In addition, a peer-to-peer programme enables trainers and teachers to use XR scenarios in a didactically sound manner, to take on the role of learning guide and to permanently integrate methods of self-organized learning (SOL) into everyday training.  <\/p>\n<h4>Profile<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Duration:<\/strong> October 2025 &#8211; September 2028<\/p>\n<p><strong>Funding program:<\/strong> Future
