Frequently Asked Questions About VR Training Programs Covered in This Guide

What is immersive learning?
The key aspects of immersive learning include offering learners a higher level of engagement, realistic experience, the opportunity to practice and apply skills, and yes, immersion, when it comes to learning new subject matter and skills development.

What is the difference between off-the-shelf VR training content and custom VR training content?
Off-the-shelf immersive learning content simulates a range of situations and scenarios applicable to many industries. Similar to e-learning content libraries, off-the-shelf immersive learning content is ready to adopt, with no content creation required.

Custom VR training content on the other hand can be designed for specific training use cases, and can incorporate your organizations culture, values, or products and services.

We go over both of these VR training content options in detail in the e-book's chapter on VR content and hardware.
What are my hardware options for deploying immersive learning to employees?
Immersive learning content can be delivered to XR devices such as Meta Quest, and others, or on 2D devices like laptops and desktop computers. In the e-book we explain these VR training deployment options in detail.
What use cases can immersive learning be used for?
Immersive learning can be used for use cases ranging from sales training and customer service training to leadership development and managerial training. In the e-book we discuss how to go about selecting your own use cases for immersive learning and the factors that should be considered while determining how VR training simulations can complement your existing training programs.
How much does VR training cost?
Costs for a VR training program will depend on factors such as the immersive learning platform you choose and its associated pricing model, and the number of user licenses you will need for that platform. Additional factors include the deployment methodology selected (VR vs. desktop devices) and whether you will be creating custom content, or curating existing immersive learning content. We go in-depth on these considerations in the e-book to help you build a budget proposal for your VR training program.
How can I measure success and training results for a VR training program?
VR training introduces new categories of training data beyond a typical completion statement for a learning module. These include the ability to measure improvement over time for specific skills, training performance in scenario-based VR simulations, and other valuable training data that will demonstrate the ROI of your VR training program. The e-book's section on measuring results and employee VR training performance outlines these data types in detail.
