EXPERT ROOFING TRAINING WITHOUT LEAVING THE GROUND

You work hard to build your business - and we’re here to help you grow it. Owens Corning is proud to invest in tools and training that make a real difference for contractors like you. Our new OCU VR Training is designed to help elevate your team’s skills, boost retention, and improve jobsite performance.

Developed in partnership with PIXO VR, these specialized roofing courses bring hands-on learning to life in a whole new way. And the results speak for themselves: studies show VR training can improve employee retention by up to 80% after one year, compared to just 20% after traditional training¹.

This isn’t just about technology - it’s about empowering your business with the best training in the industry.
