## Overview
AVEVA is a Cambridge-based industrial software company founded in 1967 as CADCentre and known as AVEVA since 2001. Schneider Electric completed its acquisition of the company in January 2023, so the former AVEVA Group plc listing and acquisition event must not be presented as startup funding. AVEVA's broader business covers engineering, operations, industrial data, simulation, and asset performance, but it also maintains a dedicated industrial workforce-training portfolio: AVEVA Unified Learning, Operator Training Simulator, Pipeline Training Simulator, and XR Studio for Training. These products support onboarding, safety and compliance training, maintenance skills, competency tracking, process simulation, and immersive practice for operators in high-risk industries. AR & VR Training therefore remains the correct primary DHRMap category, while the profile explicitly identifies AVEVA as a broad industrial-software vendor rather than a general HR suite.

## Products
AVEVA Unified Learning; AVEVA Operator Training Simulator; AVEVA Pipeline Training Simulator; AVEVA XR Studio for Training; digital-twin and process simulation; industrial engineering, operations, data, and asset-performance software.

## Customers
More than 20,000 enterprises across over 100 countries use AVEVA's broader industrial-software portfolio; this vendor-level figure is not a standalone training-product customer count.
