As developers and content creators, we want to improve our learners’ training and development experiences. Virtual reality perfectly complements your organization’s existing tools while offering a unique and effective way to engage learners in hands-on, realistic scenarios. These scenarios are inherently safe and affordable and provide a consequence-free space for your learners to fail. New technology like VR can be tricky to navigate due to the many considerations needed, including investment cost, upskilling your team, adapting your workflow, and maybe most importantly, how to get started.

In this webinar we will explore what virtual reality is and how it fits into your learning technology landscape. We will explore training use cases where VR is most effective and provides the best value for learning and ROI. Finally, we will list the steps needed for your organization to get started with VR, including what questions to ask, what skills are required, what your VR dream team looks like, and, most importantly, where to begin.
