Virage Simulation releases The Golden Shifter™ training program for the VS600M truck driving simulator

Montreal, November 1, 2010 - Virage Simulation releases The Golden Shifter™ training program for the VS600M truck driving simulator.

Virage Simulation Inc., a Canadian leader in car and truck driving simulator products, services and turnkey-training solutions, released today the Golden Shifter™ training program.

The Golden Shifter™ is a self-paced learning program consisting of four interlinked modules designed to allow learners to achieve competence in shifting a non-synchronized transmission. “Students will learn faster and better”, says Remi Quimper, president of Virage Simulation. “Shifting a non-synchronised transmission is not intuitive. The Golden Shifter program introduces the manoeuvre step by step, allows self-paced practice and provides continuous feedback to the student.”

Designed to run on the VS600M truck simulator, the Golden Shifter™ program allows the student to perform, on average, six (6) gear changes every minute. There is no mechanical wear, no fuel burned and no risk. The student can focus entirely on the main learning objective, shifting.

Developed in collaboration with the CFTC, a large truck driving school in Charlesbourg, the Golden Shifter™ is part of Virage Simulation’s integrated training solution for the CDL (Commercial Driving License) program.
