PLANT™: A Smarter Way to Learn and an Operational Asset
by: Dan Geraghty
In industries where precision, safety, and efficiency are paramount—like nuclear energy and data centers—access to plant reference information is the backbone of operational excellence. That’s where PLANT™ steps in: a fully integrated, cloud-hosted operational training platform built to modernize how employees learn, work, and perform.
Training: From Lectures to Immersive Learning
PLANT™ replaces outdated, lecture-heavy instruction with a dynamic, Systematic Approach to Training (SAT). Whether your team prefers instructor-led sessions or self-directed learning, PLANT™ delivers essential system knowledge through interactive tools, virtual environments, and modular design. The result? Faster qualification timelines, reduced training costs, and measurable improvements in knowledge retention.
Learning That Sticks
Training isn’t one-size-fits-all. PLANT™ supports diverse learning styles with:
- Flashcards for quick recall
- Quizzes for reinforcement
- Drag-and-drop exercises for interactive engagement
These custom learning activities help learners retain information longer and apply it more effectively in the facility.
Centralized Content, Consistent Delivery
Say goodbye to scattered documents and version confusion. PLANT™ centralizes all plant material in a unified digital system, simplifying:
- Version control
- Content updates
- Organization-wide consistency
Explore Systems Like Never Before
- Interactive System Diagrams: Learners can dive into high-resolution, layered visuals that reveal system architecture down to the component level. This hands-on exploration boosts comprehension and keeps engagement high.
- 360-Degree Multimedia Integration: Integrated photos, video walkthroughs, and 3D animations bring systems to life, aligning visual content for deeper understanding.
Modular, Customizable, and Scalable
This operational training platform uses a Modular Learning Object Architecture, meaning materials are built from reusable, objective-based components. This allows for:
- Rapid customization to meet site-specific needs including continuing and just in time training
- Streamlined content development
- Easy scalability across departments and facilities
Beyond Training: Supporting Plant Operations
PLANT™ isn’t just a training tool—it’s an operational asset. Teams can use it for:
- Work Management and Outage Planning: Prepare work packages by accessing system knowledge, procedures, and plant interactive photos directly from the platform. Walkdowns by planners and engineers can be performed more efficiently and can reduce radiation exposure
- Pre-Job Briefings: Deliver visual, interactive briefings that reinforce safety and task clarity using the power of the information accessible in the platform
- Online Access: Enable anytime, anywhere access for all station personnel with cloud-hosted materials
The Future of Plant Information Digitization Is Here
PLANT™ empowers teams to learn smarter, work safer, and perform better. With immersive content, flexible delivery, and operational integration, it’s not just a training platform, it’s a strategic advantage.
At NEXA®, we believe PLANT™ is more than an operational training platform—it’s the future of how high-performance teams learn, adapt, and lead.
