VR Safety Training
Thanks to Virtual Reality, you can perfectly train and apply what you learn in a course in practice.
This way, you can start turning the knowledge into real competencies and apply them immediately in your daily job. So the ideal methodology in the context of security.
VR safety training
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 training courses.

High quality hardware,
high quality VR training
VR hardware consists of several components.
There are the headsets, of course, but also streaming servers, professional graphics cards, wireless access points, tracking tools, etc.
There is also a lot involved in terms of software: local and cloud applications, networking, performance monitoring, etc.
Technology is evolving at lightning speed in terms of both hardware and software, with major leaps being made every 6 months. Through dual use of hardware (professional and entertainment), we manage to amortize these investments at an accelerated rate and keep up with the latest developments.
Moreover, we have very good partnerships with the manufacturers of our hardware and our applications are also sometimes seen as their playing field for further developments.
Therefore, when companies call on our services, they do not have to worry about large investments that are completely obsolete shortly afterwards.
'Reality could be compared to a 1:1 scale map with odour, noise and touch. If we manage to create such a map, it would become indistinguishable from the reality it's intended to represent.'
'A quarter of people will spend at least an hour a day in the metaverse by 2026'
'Connecting more people to AR and VR technologies could transform everything from education and healthcare to mining and tourism'
Benefits of
Virtual Reality safety training
For many training participants, it is not efficient to listen to an instructor and take notes at the same time. For today’s students of all generations (!), it’s all about combining different multimedia and sensory experiences.
When using VR as a learning methodology, all of these are combined. Interactive VR scenarios that drive higher participation and better choices.
Collaboration and discussions between participants are much more engaging. In fact, interactive learning helps students learn 2 to 4 times faster than with other learning methods.
