Practical VR Experiences That Strengthen Career Pathways

Learn Healthcare Skills in VR

VRNA uses a fully immersive virtual reality experience to increase the effectiveness and lower the cost of teaching patient care skills. VRNA functions as a supplement to lab instruction, helping to reduce the material and preparatory burdens on instructors while keeping students engaged in lab content. This provides students with an independent and practical method of learning the hands-on skills needed for career certifications.

Faster, Safer, & Cost-Effective

Packaged in a compact all-in-one VR headset, VRNA offers a simulated environment where trainees can practice and develop the skills to progress in their chosen career path. Students in VRNA are asked to perform essential job skills step-by-step. As they practice, VRNA provides personalized performance feedback and assessments that are immediately shared with their instructors. This immersive and interactive tool provides a realistic and safe environment for students to gain hands-on experience, improve their skills competency, and enhance their job-readiness for real-world patient care situations.
