CSPS Tech Lab Projects

The CSPS Tech Lab works on a variety of innovation projects to support the modernization of learning across the School and the GC. Take a look at some of our projects...

vExpo Virtual Event Platform


vExpo is a virtual event platform designed to provide you access to all event material from one central location.

vExpo is a virtual event platform, developed in-house, to enhance participants’ experience. vExpo provides event participants with access to all event information from one central location, while making it engaging and easy to use.
Participants can navigate a virtual lobby and browse through the agenda, speaker biographies, live presentations, and an exhibit area that showcases virtual kiosks where event partners can promote and share information on their products and services.

vKiosks

vKiosks are part of the vExpo suite or products. These virtual kiosks are developed to showcase and promote initiatives and projects offered by various entities across the GC.

They can be used during virtual event exhibit halls through the vExpo platform, or as a stand-alone kiosks as part of your Web presence and promotional packages.

ESDC Workplace & You is a virtual space designed in partnership with ESDC to help acclimate employees to their department’s modernization activity-based workplace. This digitally guided tour allows employees to navigate a modernized office space with a lobby, kiosks and 3D floor plan, each holding information and links to key resources.

Virtual Reality Experimentation

For an organization like CSPS, virtual reality (VR) has the potential to bring learning to the next level.

This technology offers learners the possibility to experiment situations where they can learn but also apply their knowledge. For example, VR can provide opportunities to experiment simulated immersive situations where soft skills can be applied (e.g., being an actor in an harassment situation or being immerse into history). VR can also simulate situations that would otherwise be to difficult or too dangerous to recreate in real life (e.g., managing emergency situations).

The Tech Lab is experimenting with the use of VR for learning, and identifying the right use cases to pilot, including virtual space exploration as part of the natural progression of our work on the vExpo and virtual space projects mentioned above. Stay tuned for updates on our work with VR!

Partnership Opportunities

Part of our work consists of working closely with cost-sharing partners on innovation projects aimed at experimenting with new technologies and supporting learning across the GC.
