Logistics
This training provides a realistic and interactive experience to teach employees how to work safely in a typical logistics environment.
Using virtual reality, workers can experience risky situations and learn how to handle them properly to prevent injuries and accidents.
VR safety training for logistics
In a logistics environment, such as warehouses, there are many risks associated with daily operations.
Workers often come into contact with external parties, such as suppliers, transporters, and colleagues working in different sections of the warehouse.
They often work under time pressure to process shipments on time, creating additional challenges.
Employees must be particularly alert to numerous factors, such as moving forklifts and other material handling equipment, and the presence of other employees moving through the warehouse.
It is essential to pay constant attention to signage and safety instructions to prevent accidents.
VR safety training allows employees to train in various real-life scenarios.
This training helps them become aware of potential risks and develop effective strategies to drastically reduce accidents and incidents.

The effectiveness of
Virtual Reality training
The effectiveness of any safety training depends greatly on the quality and mix of learning methodologies.
According to PWC research, there are four critical elements to successful safety training:
-
Recognizability:
Curriculum and examples should be recognizable to participants -
Recognizability:
Curriculum and examples should be recognizable to participants -
Context:
Scenarios must be placed in context -
Feedback:
Correct feedback should be given
All of these factors come together in VR safety training.
The study also compares VR training with traditional classroom instruction and e-learning, and reveals four key conclusions for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of safety training:
-
Emotional engagement:
VR training increases participants' emotional engagement -
Self-confidence:
Participants feel more confident in applying what they have learned -
Focus:
Participants' focus is significantly higher -
Time efficiency:
Required training time is shorter

Our training offer
We strongly believe in “blended” learning, combining various learning methodologies to teach participants not only knowledge, but also real skills.
Developing real competencies only begins when you are able to actually apply the knowledge you have gained in practice. That’s where our VR training comes in: these are ideal for turning theory into practice and are often an integral part of our training courses.
