Virtual Reality
Valley
More companies are realizing the effectiveness of virtual reality for training. Getting excited about virtual reality doesn't mean you have to reinvent your entire training program. Chances are, you've already developed great learning content, eLearning courses, and even ILT sessions. But how do you incorporate virtual reality into your existing learning program?
In this session, we'll cover how you can implement augmented or virtual reality into your existing learning program to see even better results. We'll walk you through a case study on how a beverage distribution company built upon existing videos and eLearning courses to incorporate virtual reality into a blended learning strategy. You will learn how to identify which components of your current curriculum can be applied to 6dof/3dof VR environments or 360 video. We will examine different categories of learning, delivered as either eLearning courses or ILT, pertaining to onboarding, safety and compliance, and soft and technical skills training. We will then show you how to choose the best VR modalities to fit those learning objectives and enhance your blended learning strategy.
In this session, you will learn:
- How to examine your current learning program and recognize which portions are best suited for virtual reality
- Strategies for implementing VR in an instructor-led environment with large class sizes
- Best practices for developing an immersive learning program that combines eLearning/ILT courses with VR
