Guides to VR and interactive training
Explore how VR and interactive simulations can support training across industries, with examples you can try.
Getting started
Delivery formats
Illustration Browser-based training simulations
See how an interactive browser lesson lets learners practise a task, and what to check before commissioning one.
Illustration Training on phones and tablets
Plan a phone or tablet training exercise around touch controls, screen size, access and the task learners need to practise.
Illustration Desktop training simulators
Understand what an installed PC training simulator can cover and what to plan for controls, rollout and assessment.
Industries
Illustration VR training for manufacturing
Explore VR manufacturing training based on your equipment and procedures, with examples of inspection, maintenance and fault finding.
Illustration VR training for metal manufacturing
Where virtual practice fits in metalworking, from equipment orientation and hazard recognition to procedure rehearsal.
Illustration Food and beverage manufacturing
Explore how interactive training could support food factory induction, production decisions and preparation for work around equipment.
Illustration Chemical plant operator training
Consider virtual plant familiarisation, process understanding and communication exercises for chemical operator training.
Illustration Oil and gas training
Explore virtual site familiarisation, equipment learning and response rehearsal for oil and gas training teams.
Illustration Power plant technician training
Give power plant technicians a place to learn equipment layouts and rehearse maintenance decisions before supervised site work.
Illustration VR training in mining
Explore how mining teams can use virtual equipment inspections and repeatable scenarios alongside supervised operator training.
Illustration Maritime and offshore crew training
Explore virtual familiarisation and scenario practice for maritime and offshore crews, with a clear place alongside practical training.
Illustration VR training for healthcare
Training examples for clinical educators, from equipment familiarisation and procedure rehearsal to communication practice.
Illustration VR in education and vocational training
Ideas for fitting virtual practice into a practical course and checking skills beyond the headset.
Illustration VR training for construction
Examples for site induction, hazard recognition and equipment familiarisation, followed by instructor review.
Illustration VR training for warehousing and logistics
Explore warehouse training scenarios for picking, receiving and dispatch. See where VR helps trainees practise checks and respond to mismatches.
Industrial topics
Illustration Factory onboarding
How virtual factory familiarisation can give new starters a clearer first day while keeping early learning away from a working production line.
Illustration Industrial emergency training
Why industrial teams use virtual scenarios to rehearse unfamiliar situations, discuss decisions and prepare for practical emergency exercises.
Conveyor training result. Sample data. Videos and simulations
Compare watching an industrial training video with exploring equipment and making choices in a simulation, and see where each format helps.
Illustration Virtual factory tours
How a virtual factory tour can help customers and new starters understand an industrial process when travel or access makes a physical visit difficult.
Training tasks
Conveyor Quick Fix, our browser training demo. Turn a procedure into interactive training
Turn an approved work procedure into decisions, practice and feedback, with your subject expert involved throughout.
Illustration Capture experienced workers’ knowledge
Use task observation and practical questions to turn experienced workers’ decisions into reviewed training scenarios.
Illustration Maintenance and troubleshooting training
Ideas for inspection and fault-finding practice, with feedback and checks on the real equipment.
Illustration VR welding training
What welding simulators can practise, which technique feedback to look for and where live workshop training remains necessary.
Illustration VR safety training
Ways to practise hazard recognition and assess safety learning while keeping site controls and hands-on checks in place.
Planning
Illustration How to plan a custom VR training project
Prepare a brief covering the learner’s task, source material, feedback and the finished application.
Illustration Training before new equipment arrives
Prepare staff for new equipment using available drawings and reviewed tasks, then connect that practice to supervised training after installation.
Illustration Off-the-shelf or custom training
Compare ready-made training and custom applications using the lesson, equipment differences, ongoing costs and changes your team needs.
Illustration Custom VR training cost
See what shapes a custom VR training quote: equipment, learner actions, assessment and devices. Compare the scope of a pilot and a full program.
Illustration Training cost savings
A break-even example for comparing replaced practice sessions with development and operating costs.
Illustration From a pilot to regular training
Prepare the first learner group, give instructors clear responsibilities and keep a simulation useful as people and procedures change.
