1 Choosing the right VR platform

Depending on the type and level of safety training you want to provide, you may need to choose between different VR platforms, such as head-mounted displays, desktop VR, or mobile VR. Each platform has its own advantages and limitations, such as cost, availability, portability, interactivity, and realism. You should consider the learning objectives, the target audience, the budget, and the technical requirements of your VR safety training before selecting the most suitable platform.

Safety is one of the premier use cases for virtual reality training. One of the first "best practices" for safety training in VR is to get a proper sound engineer. During an unsafe event, there are sights and sounds that lead people to the proper execution of their duties in that situation. Secondly, figure out if this is a situation that would be best suited for an individual training event, or can you make the experience more realistic by adding more players? Try to keep the users away thinking, "in a real scenario, xyz would be happening" by including those considerations in the immersive environment.

2 Designing engaging and relevant VR content

The content of your VR safety training should be engaging and relevant to the learners and the context of their work. You should design VR scenarios that are realistic, challenging, and feedback-oriented, so that the learners can practice and improve their safety skills and behaviors. You should also avoid overloading the learners with too much information or stimuli, and provide clear instructions and guidance throughout the VR experience. Additionally, you should consider the accessibility and diversity of your learners, and ensure that your VR content is inclusive and respectful of their needs and preferences.

3 Integrating VR with other learning methods

VR is not a standalone solution for safety training, but rather a complementary method that can enhance and reinforce other learning methods, such as classroom instruction, e-learning, or on-the-job training. You should integrate VR with other learning methods to create a blended learning approach that maximizes the learning outcomes and retention of your safety training. For example, you can use VR as a pre-assessment, a simulation, a practice session, or a post-assessment, depending on the learning objectives and the stage of the learning process.

In my experience, VR has been a great multiplier for training teams. The immersive content can be tailored to reinforce other content, and can even be randomized to give learners a new perspective each play through. Another advantage gained by using VR, is that the users can play through the scenario as many times as necessary without the fear of reprisal. Learners can also impact the immersive environment without making any real world changes to your hardware, infrastructure, or equipment.

4 Evaluating the impact of VR

To measure the effectiveness and impact of your VR safety training, you should evaluate both the learning outcomes and the user experience of your VR program. You can use various methods and tools to collect and analyze data on the learners' performance, behavior, attitude, satisfaction, and feedback regarding the VR experience. You should also compare the results of your VR program with other learning methods or benchmarks, and identify the strengths and weaknesses of your VR approach. Based on the evaluation, you can improve and optimize your VR program for future safety training.

5 Following ethical and legal standards

Using VR for safety training also involves some ethical and legal issues that you should be aware of and follow. For example, you should respect the privacy and consent of your learners, and protect their personal and sensitive data that may be collected or stored by the VR system. You should also ensure that your VR content does not infringe any copyright or intellectual property rights, and that you have the necessary permissions and licenses to use any third-party materials or software. Moreover, you should comply with any relevant laws and regulations that may apply to your VR safety training, such as health and safety, data protection, or accessibility standards.

Using VR for safety training can be a rewarding and innovative way to enhance the safety culture and performance of your organization. However, it also requires careful planning, design, integration, evaluation, and compliance to ensure its success and sustainability. By following these best practices, you can make the most of VR for your safety training needs and goals.
