EAU CLAIRE, WI, November 30, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Educators and industry leaders attending the Association for Career & Technical Education's CareerTech VISION 2017 Conference in Nashville next week will get the first look at new learning aids for agriculture education and health science from Realityworks, Inc. A Midwest-based company that has been developing innovative educational tools for over two decades, Realityworks' new anatomical models address job skill development in two in-demand fields: agriculture education and nursing training.

Realityworks will also be unveiling additional models for teaching animal and plant systems.
All of these new anatomical models will be showcased alongside products and programs for skill development in other CTE pathways. They include:

"Our newest tools are detailed and interactive, and are designed to help educators engage, impact and educate today's students."
