VR Corporate Training Opportunities for 2019
I have been conducting research on the potential of VR within the corporate training environment. I have provided a snapshot of some concepts that you may find useful, if you have other ideas please share them in the comments.
Virtual Office Tours
Imagine your first day at a new job and being given an in person tour.
This situation can be recreated in a live or pre-recorded video stream that would be displayed in VR in real time or by pre-recorded stream.
This could be a quick impressive win for a first implementation of VR.

Virtual Meetings
Imagine you want to attend a meeting, but you are too far away to attend in person. This would normally mean conducting a teleconference or video conference.
A new third option is coming into play via a live VR streaming conference. Any conference room streaming 360 video can provide an offsite participant with the feeling of being directly in the room.
Crisis Call Training or Threat Based Training
What type of training works best to help you remember something?
Do you remember more from watching someone else experience a situation or experiencing a situation for yourself first hand?
This concept can put a participant into simulated danger without being in real life danger.
Tilt Brush – Whiteboard
Imagine being able to review Whiteboard sessions. Viewers of the whiteboard recordings can get the experience of attending the meeting without actually making the meeting.
By implementing digital whiteboards management can quickly gauge the heartbeat of a department or the entire organization.
Just select a team and either watch in real time or fast forward through a pre-recorded stream.

Public Speaking Simulations
In a non-cartoon format you will be digitally placed on stage and get the true feeling of conducting a speech in public.

Virtual Collaboration Sessions
Imagine a different way to collaborate with your colleagues and other leading industry experts.
The VR environment can provide access to tools and stimulate ideas using a completely new mechanism.
Simulated real life situations of day to day computer based activities
Imagine real video not a cartoon style simulation that would guide you through using required applications.
This example is using an older technology. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj2ycCwbvSE
Fly on the wall
Participants could passively watch a situation to gain more information see (Clouds over Sidra: 3:09) : https://youtu.be/jRQzl8ewDMQ?t=3m9s
Fire Safety Training
Simulate fire hazards and escape techniques that can all be practiced in a safe but super realistic way.
This concept can put a participant into simulated danger without being in real life danger.
Stress Reduction Therapy
This type of simulated environment can assist participants that are suffering from the effects of stress.
Pain Management Therapy
This can be accomplished by distracting participants with virtual reality elements.
These virtual elements trick your brain into believing you are somewhere else.
Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy
This type of therapy can assist participants with mental illness recover from various cognitive and behavioral illnesses.
Phobia Therapy
A participant can take part in a variety of simulations that can assist in building a tolerance for overcoming a fear of heights IRL (In Real Life).
