Case: Innovative skills training with VR as a core tool

Port Reality offers innovative skills training, using virtual reality (VR) as its core tool. Through VR simulations, Port Reality creates realistic and interactive training environments where employees can develop their skills in a safe, effective and measurable way.

The challenge that needed to be solved

The challenge was to provide life experience training without risking the company's reputation, while measuring employees' real-world skills and improving workplace communication.

Description of the solution and technology used

Port Reality has created a catalogue of over 30 courses covering workplace communication skills. The courses are followed step by step, ending with practical exercises in virtual reality (VR). The user trains against AI-driven characters and receives immediate feedback on performance. The digital, scalable approach makes it possible to train anywhere, without the need for physical teachers.

Results and success factors

Studies show that VR training is four times faster than traditional classroom training and leads to a 275% increase in confidence when applying skills. Among customers, 95% reported that the training prepared them for real-life situations and 86% felt more confident after the exercises.

The impact of innovation on industry and society

Port Reality's digital and scalable approach is particularly promising for the education sector and workplace improvements. VR enables the simulation of different situations, making it possible to customise courses to specific industry needs.

Future prospects and opportunities for further development

The company is constantly developing new courses and training programmes to meet the current needs of the industry.
