411 Preparing Your Company for an Immersive Learning Program

12:00 PM - 12:45 PM Thursday, October 22

Immersive learning is a powerful tool that can help your team achieve learning goals in a meaningful and hands-on way. But within the L&D field, there's a lot of misunderstanding about what exactly AR/VR can do and how it can be implemented. And this can make it a challenge getting everyone at your organization‚ and even just your team‚ onboard with what you need to know to make an immersive learning program a success.

In this session you'll explore the steps you'll want to take in order to successfully launch an immersive learning program at your organization, including how to get buy-in and acceptance by business units. You'll find out about creating a solid business case as a reason to use AR/VR, and how a business partner proposing to use AR/VR to solve a particular challenge can make it easier to implement AR/VR solutions. You'll then look at how to match the AR/VR use case with your business's core values to ensure people understand how specifically this new technology is going to impact the organization. You'll discover strategies for finding appropriate business cases and how to work with an internal team to plan, build, implement, and maintain an AR/VR project.

In this session, you will learn:

  • A step-by-step process for designing successful AR/VR learning
  • Why launching a pilot is a great idea to get started
  • To identify key players and successfully work with them on an AR/VR project
  • Ways to measure your results and iterate
