VR training creates a highly immersive and interactive experience, allowing employees to practice and learn new skills in a simulated environment that mimics real-life scenarios. This enhances the learning process, allowing employees to retain information better and apply their knowledge more effectively.
Investing in Virtual Reality (VR) training is not just a trend, it is a smart decision backed by research and data. A recent study conducted by PwC showed that employees trained in VR completed the training up to four times faster than in the classroom and 1.5 times faster than e-learning. Despite the additional time required for VR headset onboarding, VR training was still three times faster than classroom training and 1.15x faster than e-learning.
The results of the study were not just limited to the speed of training completion, VR training also had a significant impact on the trainees' confidence, emotional connection, and focus. Trainees who underwent VR training were up to 275% more confident to act on what they learned, felt 3.75 times more emotionally connected to the content than classroom learners and 2.3 times more connected than e-learners. In addition, VR-trained learners were up to 4 times more focused during training than their e-learning peers and 1.5 times more focused than their classroom peers. These results demonstrate the clear benefits of VR training and why it is worth investing in.
As you can see, VR training offers numerous benefits that traditional training methods simply cannot match.
