Why Virtual Reality in Education is the future of learning
Engage Students with Interactive Learning
VR training is the perfect solution for enhancing vocational training and giving students practical lessons to prepare them for work across a range of industries from automotive repair, engineering, manufacturing and construction with engaging, realistic simulations.
Enhance Training and Development
Lectures and source material can only go so far, to excel in the real-world students need practical experience. Gaining that practical experience is made easy with virtual reality, where students can build skills and muscle memory in their own time, as and when they please.
Encourage classroom collaboration
Facilitate collaboration between everyone in class, with no geographical boundaries. VR means teachers can co-plan lessons, share instructional strategies and classrooms can connect, collaborate and work with another at anytime.

How does VR Learning work in Education?
Defining Your Goals and VR Training Modules
The first step in creating effective VR training content is defining your specific educational goals and the modules you need for students. No matter what modules you need to help students develop their vocational skills, we tailor our VR experiences to meet your institution’s unique needs through bespoke content creation.
Requirements Gathering
Once your training modules are confirmed, our team will collaborate closely with you to document the learning objectives and content requirements. This may involve reviewing your curriculum, capturing videos, and using 3D modelling to create virtual environments that align with your educational goals.
Art & Environment 3D Modelling
The more realistic the virtual experience, the more impactful the learning. Our 3D artists and designers can recreate classrooms, laboratories, historical sites and more to mimic real-world environments, providing students and educators with lifelike, immersive learning experiences.
VR Scenario Development
Once your environment is created, our development team begins building and testing your training modules, ensuring that every module meets the highest standards for you, your students and their training needs.
Ready, set, go…
Once your training content is complete and you’re 100% happy with your scenario, we will create your branded PORTAL aka your dedicated learning management system for your VR content.
Here, trainers and students can access class schedules, training content and individual performance analytics. Everything you need for effective learning, accessed via a VR headset.
