When we say VR:
We mean immersive, real-feel,
relevant, virtual world learning.

When we say xAPI:
Google Images for xAPI

We mean real-time, high quality
insights about learners when and
where they are.

When we say Next-Gen:
We mean leveraging technology to
innovate, personalize, and evolve
learning into immersive experiences.

● Placing users in an
interactive learning
environment, replicating a
real life scenario
● Micro learning in action
● Learning by doing
We mean leveraging technology
to innovate, personalize, and
evolve learning.
What is Immersive Learning?

● Attention Rate
Immersive learning gets 100%
attention
● Retention Rate
VR Learning has shown an 80%
retention rate 1 year after training,
traditional training as low as 20%
after 1 week
evolve learning.
Why Immersive Learning?

● Engagement rate
Gamified immersive learning is
“stickier” than other forms of
learning
● Freedom to Fail
Mistakes made in virtual reality
are mistakes not made in
reality
evolve learning.
Why Immersive Learning?

Immersive training allows front-line
workers to experience and navigate
difficult interactions in a
consequence-free environment.
The increased repetition enabled
by VR creates confidence and
comfort when employees are faced
with a difficult situation in the
actual working environment with
customers.

Vanderbilt University School of
Nursing is using CenarioVR to train
nursing students on Ultrasound
technology. Because of the high cost
of equipment needed to train nursing
students, students had limited time
to train. Now they master their skills
in VR before they work on the
physical machine, lowering the
amount of time needed to be spent
with the equipment.

Healthcare at Vanderbilt University

AIB International uses CenarioVR to
train line staff and inspectors on
sanitary and safety procedures on
the production floor. A single
mistake in any process on the line
can result in a complete loss of
production, so ensuring that each
employee has experienced the
process before live production is
vital.

Service Titan Corporation uses
CenarioVR to onboard staff at their
headquarters. New employees are
introduced to the facility and to key
staff through VR to encourage them
to discover all that is offered at the
facility and build social context for
their new team members .

library. A customer comes in
frustrated that she cannot find the
book she is looking for, you need to
respond. How do you respond?

How do I work
towards next-gen
for my learning
team?

• Create interactivity so that users
can be immersed in the scenario.
• Link multiple 360° videos and
images into scenes that tell a story.
• Add knowledge checks and
branching to promote exploration
and trial & error.
• Distribute to viewers on a browser,
mobile device, or VR headset.
• Measure and analyze those
interactions to gain insights.
