Asbestos recognition residential
Using virtual reality, workers are more immersed in the real world without being effectively exposed to asbestos.
VR safety training for asbestos recognition (residential)
Asbestos can still be present in older homes and buildings, often hidden in insulation, roofing or flooring. Inhaling asbestos fibers can cause serious health problems, such as lung cancer and asbestosis.
Recognizing asbestos-containing materials is essential to avoid unsafe situations, especially during renovations or demolitions. Our VR training simulates realistic residential environments and teaches participants how to safely identify asbestos and take proper precautions.
By investing in asbestos detection, you not only protect residents and workers, but also contribute to a healthier and safer living environment. Together, we are building an asbestos-free future.

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 -
Repetition:
Information should be repeated at regular intervals -
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 courses.
